The only point i have is that the mod does not track bounced emails if it could do that it would be great.

tagged, but without the ability to track bounces its of next to no use to me; I've already got the default vb mailer.

I know, but something important as bounces . Without to track bounces it not so good a newsletter plugin would rate it a 7 without it. I must say it looks good from what i can see in the screenshots.

Also is it wise to link to your site in emails because if the system is being abused you PR will go down.

I created a message and then a campaign. I set for the campaign to run at 1:30 PM EST and changed to cron job to run every half hour. But the newsletter did not send at or after 1:30 PM.

Is your server time the same with yours? In anycase I found bugs on using crons. vB bypass even its own crons. The mod is working well, that's why when you click "Run now", you're getting the message "Done". So, its about a vB's bug.

Even when I initiate the cron myself, it does ay DONE, but still nothing happens; and the cron job time stays the same.

Do you mean that the emails never sent? That's impossible. I've full my mailbox with test campaigns, and an hour ago I sent a mailing to my members. They got the email.
Please note that after a successfull campaign its marked as completed and you can't send it again. In this case the "Done" that you see at cron's screen is just an information that it run the job. Check at your front-end if this campaign is marked "Finished".

** By runing manually a cron the scheduled time does not change.

Yes, the emails never sent. Knowing this I have set up another campaign to run at 2:30 PM and the cron job is set to run at this time also. I'll let you know how it goes.

Still doesn't work for me. 2:30 PM EST has passed and the campaign status still says 'scheduled'. The cron job reset it self to 3:30 PM. The campaign cron job doesn't show in my scheduled task log.
