Introduction¶
What does it do?¶
A TYPO3 extension to send any pages as a newsletter to several recipients at once.
Originally based on TC Directmail 2.0.2, the mailing engine was almost entirely rewritten but most features were preserved.We now use SwiftMailer (from TYPO3 core). And it aims to improve the user experience and works out of the box.
Comparison with TC Directmail 2.0.2¶
What’s better¶
- Use of SwiftMailer
- Brand new database structure allowing for much more size efficient storage
- Two special markers available:
###newsletter_view_url###
and###newsletter_unsubscribe_url###
- Better cleaning of javascript in email content
- Plain text quality is improved
What’s worse¶
- Removed wizard for recipientlist generation
- Only one recipient list per newsletter (workaround: send multiple newsletter or UNION via raw sql)
