CMS Made Simple Forums

Hi all,

A client is sending newsletters to over 300 emailadresses using NMS. At the moment the only thing I can see is that the job is finished succesfully. I think I should assume then that the newsletter is sent to all (approved) addresses.
What I would like to see, however, is a log with a confirmation for every single emailaddress the newsletter is sent to. That way I would feel more sure that the newsletter really is sent to all addresses, and if something goes wrong, I would be able to check the log to see who should have received a newsletter and who's not.

Is logging like this possible within this module?

Thanks,

Hans

CMSMS 1.11.9
NMS 2.7.4

Mailchimp has it all.

@hdriezen I don't use NMS (yet) but the place to raise these kind of feature requests is here:

I'd also recommend http://sendy.co/ - absolutely badd ass and much cheaper then mail chimp

The Admin log will show when a recipient's address had a problem and not delivered. And, there once was a module that did NMS stats, but I think it is too old now for current versions. Also, you can set up the bounce checks in NMS to catch bounced emails.

But, I've recently started using MailGun.com on a couple installs as my outgoing SMTP server for NMS. And, it is awesome! The free account will cover your client's needs and there is great logging. You can see delivered, failed, bounced, and track opens. So, you get some decent tracking. They have an extensive API if you want to do more than that and use your own newsletter script instead of a prebuilt one like NMS.

if you want do go down a similar route to the one mentioned above - http://mandrill.com/ is another good solid option - may by the folk at mailchimp

Thanks for all your suggestions, I will check them out!

Hans
