Hello

I've installed enewsletter and all its modules into the site at www.orieljcr.org. Looks like it could be a really really useful module. I've been looking for something like it for quite a while. However, I've not quite got it to work yet...

I've got one newsletter set up with subscribers which I'm currently trying to send manually.

However, when I select >email newsletters -> newsletters -> 'Send Now' -> Send for the newsletter and return to the main 'email newsletters' administration page I see this in the table:

      current                sent	qued
2005-10-11 21:05	0	Array

Where 'qued' displays 'Array' rather than a number.

If I then run cron.php, 'qued' resets to 0, but sent remains at 0, and no messages are sent.

Any ideas what this could be?

Many thanks in advance

yea, the problem is that the db schema must have changed somewhere along the way for the bounce processing. Just change the newsletter_id in line 123 of bounced_email.module to publication_id instead. I also get major imap warnings in the cron execution as well, even though I am using pop for my bounce retrieval. I haven't looked into that..

cheers

Same here, but I haven't had chance to look at it,perhaps tomorrow I'll take a harde look. Using latest versions of this module on 4.6.3.

@oliver soell: I have the same issue with IMAP errors even tho I haven't set up the bounced e-mail settings. Commenting out the contents of bounced_mail_cron does the trick if you're not intending using this. Not sure if this will affect the issue of actually sending mails, tho.

I guess there should be an option or a check on the bounced e-mail receiving settings to see whether to run the mail check in bounced_mail_cron?

This is the main problem I'm concentrating on at the moment.

I've been doing some work on bounced module to make it more 'fault' tolerant:

* check to see if PHP IMAP module is available (watchdog message is set if false)
* check if username and password have been set
* check if mailbox exists

If any of these are false it gracefuly finishes trying to do bounce functions.

Should be ready for download soon-ish

OK, who's in the mood for some testing?....

I've updated bounced_email.module, should now fail gracefully if it can't connect.

Publications.module and enewsletter.module have also been updated, make sure to read the UPGRADE notes in the enewsletter README.txt

Thanx for your work.

I updated my insatllation with the 1.6 version of enewsletter.module, v1.2 bounced_mail.module, publication.module,v 1.9, aplied upgrading query "ALTER TABLE `publications` CHANGE `description` `description` TINYTEXT NOT NULL " and still got no sent message. It still says qued: Array, sent: 0, and after cron again sent:0, qued:0
I have no error messages neither in watchdog, nor in apache error log...

"qued: Array" is a presentation bug that needs to fixed.

Have you created new content, i.e. a node, and included it in newsletters?

If there is no content it won't send the newsletter.

I works! Urahh!))

I didnt' create new node, cause I had old ones, and thought that they should be sent... so created new node, and it gone!
Amazing module!
Thanx a lot!

Thumbs up!
