hello!
first, mailout is a really great module, exactly what i was looking for!
after some experimenting, i found out, that if you set mail-format to "html" and check "track statistics",
some html-code is appended at the end of the mail.
this breaks my code, because i use a template with header and footer, including "..." and "..." (footer).
(what i really want: in my browser i cannot style the 0px track image to be completely invisible, there is always a 'image not found' box)
further, maybe you can apply a class to the output you append for custom beautifications.
keep up the good work!

SamStealth commentedi noticed the system killed my html tags.
first "..." is ... html tag
second "..." is ... slash html tag.

KingMoore commentedHi sam thanks for the notes.
Stat tracking doesn't work if not in html mode. i thought there was a note about this. that is because we use an embedded image to do the tracking. I should probably provide a theme function so you can theme the image as you like.
I would like to get the module to actually respond to the image request with an transparent image or something, but have not done that as of yet.

SamStealth commentedhi!
it's not only about theming the image, but where the code is placed.
in my header, i include "html" start tag, in my footer the "html" closing tag.
your code is appended after the closing tag and i did not find a way to put it inside.
theming is sure a good idea, but won't solve this.

simeMm, interesting. Maybe we can have %optout and %tracking placeholders you can optionally use in your content...

sime(Changing the topic to the major request left. Please add new requests on separate issues, after reviewing the RC1.)
The tracking image now returns a real image so you won't get the ? marks.
The module shouldn't crash your html tags now, as long as you are not putting it in the Plain section.

simeI've decided to delay the token replacement feature until after the first stable release.
