Issue Summary

Every newsletter email is sent at a certain time, as can be seen in /admin/reports/dblog.

It would be very helpful to have a views field that displays the send time in question.

This would allow to see/calculate after how much time users on average react to the reception of the newsletter.

As an example: the view would still display all the opens, for example, but next to each open would also be the timestamp of when cron has actually sent the newsletter to this email.

This is important because some cron runs can take many hours, sometimes the better part of a day.

#1

So we would need te keep track of the sent time (date+time) when each and every mail was sent?
I would also like to see this, but I have some performance concerns... will need to investigate.

#2

How about displaying only the time from the log when the cron run was finished (or started, or both, to have a record of the send window)?

#3

Problem is that that information is also not stored at the moment. Simplenews might store this, wil have to investigate that.
