DEPRECATION WARNING

This documentation is not using the current rendering mechanism and is probably outdated. The extension maintainer should switch to the new system. Details on how to use the rendering mechanism can be found here.

Prerequisites

A TYPO3 site

Obviously you need a TYPO3 site, preferably hosted on a unix-webserver like Linux or FreeBSD. Windows is largely untested, but should work.

Working DNS and HTTP

In order for anything to work, your webserver needs to have working DNS, so it can resolve domain-names and so on. It also needs the ability to fetch files over HTTP. In short, if the extension manager works, you should be home safe. If this is not the case, please contact your system administrator.

Data sources

You must have a source type for your receivers. The default supported types are:

  • be_users

  • fe_users from fe_groups

  • fe_users from pages

  • tt_address from pages

  • A HTML-file

  • A CSV-file

    ...as these are directly supported.

You also have the possibility of using freestyle SQL, to download extra receiver types from TER or to make your own types. Please note that not all receiver types provide the same functionality.
