| Project: | Privatemsg Mass Mailer |
| Version: | 5.x-1.x-dev |

Issue Summary
I have ported this module to Drupal 6, sponsored by Chicago Technology Cooperative and for the Vocalo project. If you do release a Drupal 6 version and use this code, please simply add a link:
Drupal 6 version, in part, sponsored by Chicago Technology Cooperative.
I have updated the menu system a little differently and rewrote the mechanism to collect the users. It should be more efficient and only send one message per user.
Of course, this port is probably useless unless you have a D6 version of PrivateMsg. Also, sorry for the ".zip" format.

this doesn't works
#2
Not working! :(
#3
Actually the code is working despite that it does not add any menu items to the system
http://127.0.0.1/drupal/privatemsgmm/newbyrole
http://127.0.0.1/drupal/privatemsgmm/newbyuser
Since I am very new to drupal, I don't know how to modify the code so that it will add this two link into menu items
Any help would be appreciated.

@freetogo
Hey, I wrote this awhile ago and I have learned a lot since then. It may not work, and it was also ported for a specific project, so is not really meant to work for all instances (and probably wont). I also don't have much time to look at it, nor do I use this module. All to say, that I wish you the best.
I would check out the CVS messages and issue queue to see if the maintainer is even around anymore, and if not, go through the Abandoned Module Process: http://drupal.org/node/251466

Hey,
the maintainer is still around and I am reading through all the issues. This module highly depends on the privatemsg Module which D6 fork has mass mailing-features builtin. So there is no need to port this to D6. Other opinions?
Cheers,
McGo

I still don't know how to add Menu to the system programmatically. Anyhow, I could assure u that the drupal 6 port is working though with modification.
I will upload my revised version if anyone think that it is useful.
By the way, please tell me how to send mass private message in Drupal 6 without this port.
Many thanks

Attached please find the revised version of zzolo's port.
#8
I'm on the 6.x version and your changes aren't working for me :*(
#9
which version of privatemsg are u using?
#10
This may be buggy, but i revised the original module attached to this thread to work with 6.x-1.0-rc3. once again, may be buggy as i just did enough to make it work for my needs.
#11
doesn't work with last dev version of privatemsg
#12
can you do it work with new release of privatemsg 1.0 ?
#13
I modified this module using batch api. Please send me any questions if you have problem.
#14
Hi,
I am assuming i installed this correctly. I simply took your zip and uploaded into my modules directory and activated it and it seems to work.
I have found an issue with the fact that the module allows you to mail even blocked users.
I have a few spam bots on my site that have been blocked and they are in the list of recipients. Can we check the status of users? I'm assuming it's an easy fix but i do not know enough about PHP to implement it.
#15
Hi,
thank you for information and I fix this bug and again upload fixed version of module
#16
Hi,
I actually gave your new fix a try and it still seems to pull up my blocked users.
Also, I have privatemsg ver 1.1 installed and i do not think this port works.
#17
subscribe. I hacked up #15 and got it to work for us. AFAIK, privatemsg for D6 does NOT include the by-role functionality. What to we need to do to get this into an official release? I'd be happy to co-maintain, or start a new project, if the maintainer of this one feels that's most appropriate.
#18
Uhm, It seems as if this thingy needs some love. I created a D6 Port and a release out of #15 => http://drupal.org/node/800232 . Thanks to you, antevgen!
The tarball should be online soon. Please file any request as new issues.
