You need to set a dedicated email address for bounce emails (from email) which you'll never access with any mail client. Doing it, you'll download the emails, and thus, they'll never preceed from the system.
Most cheap GoDaddy hosting plans are not having the Mail() function enabled. If this you, sorry but this mod will not works in your site.

With ...If you want to give the look of your site to the outgoing emails, write here the HTML code for the page HEADER. Where would I get this html from ?..

Have you setup new schedule. The free version does not supports reccuring mailings (eg every Sunday). As for your comment, except if you changed something, any script works or not works. Is impossible to work once and then stops.

Whats the difference in the lite version versus your paid version?

Hi Chris,
I plan on testing this very soon and all going well will go for pro.

1 question, are there any plans to include Latest CMS Articles?
I use the CMS Articles for any important news and would prefer them to be included, more so than forum posts.

Cheers,
