Major Features:

Bounced Mail Handling: Once configured, it will (if so desired) automatically track and handle bounced mail. Alternatively, you can manually handle bounced mail if you so wish.

Automatic "Unsubscribe" Link Creation: If the user receiving the mail has access to unsubscribing, a secure link to unsubscribe themselves from the mailing list will be automatically added to the bottom of the mail. It does not require the user to be logged in, so it complies with spam policies set forth by mail providers.

Mail History: Each past sent mail can be viewed at any time from the front-end.

Advanced Subscription Management: Users can quickly and easily (un)subscribe from the mailing list via the mailing list directory, or the admin can manually change the subscription status in the AdminCP.

Bounced Mail Threshold: When an admin-configured number of mails bounce from the same email address, the user is automatically removed from mailing lists and all other email-related vBulletin features, and notified via PM what happened to their account, as well as directions to change their email addresses.

I have set up a test mailing list where only Admins should be able to subscriber. But new members are automatically joining it when they register. Same goes for another mailing list where I have it so only Premium Members should be able to join.

Screenshot of how the mailing list settings:

Also when sending the emails out does the browser have to be open or are the emails scheduled and then sent by a cron?

Could you please re-post this over at our support forums? I'm massively swamped with a new version of our site's shopping cart system, so I won't be able to look into this for a few days, in which time it may be buried already.

The browser has to stay open until it redirects you back to the mailing list directory. After which, the vBulletin mailqueue system takes over

[SeanMT]

Thanks for the reply. I have had to uninstall the mod as it was causing issues with the Paid Subscription system.

[DragonByte Tech]

Those issues have been fixed in a hotfix, but I'm not sure if they made it to the Lite version yet.

I have a newsletter set up and working great.
I have registered users checked as default subscribed but all newly registered members are not being subscribed. I have to create a new newsletter to make sure all members get added but this would reactivate members who have unsubscribed.

Is this by design or can newly registered members be added automatically?
