Great job on this module. I have a couple feature ideas. A few of us also posted some regarding an invite module with invite functions similar to gmail that allow a set number of invites.

For now I'd like to focus on these requests as the invite may be a separate module and requires hooking with user.module I assume.

1. Mutiple pages- The email a page function may be cover this a bit, but I have a few different audiences and it would be nice to have different default text for them.

2. Show user links- This may go a bit with the above and would have a different tellafriend page for logged in users. I use php and the "form-mail" module to achieve this now, but form mail is difficult to send multiple emails. Anyways, links would appear for a users profile and blog page when they send a tell a friend. This would obviously have to be only for logged in users. If the default text can process php admin could also easily create this. Does the admin texfield use any filters?

Just a few thoughts. Thanks so much for the great module.

forgot request 3.

Use users email- my hacking of the form-mail module allowed the tell-a-friend to use the senders email rather than a generic site email. I'm not positive, but this may help keep the email from going into junkmail and help the receiver recognize who sent the mail. This would probably work best as an option, as some want their site email used to prevent abuse.

On Request 3, in my experience the opposite is true. Spam filters often will throw email into the junk pile if the sender's domain name is different from the server's domain name. That's why it's best to stick with one email address coming from the domain name of the smtp server you're using. of course, easily alterable if you want it otherwise...maybe i'll make it an option when i roll out the next major update.

Some of these features are now in another module. Perhaps you would be interested in the invite.module if you haven't already found it...

I would be interested to know what you think.
