Newsletter Builder v1.00 Released!

Email sent

Hello, All -

I am really thrilled by the release of this plugin! However, am I the only person who received a really garbled version of the newsletter which announced the news?!

Although the newsletter was in HTML, neither my PC mail client nor my iPad client rendered the code properly.

See attachment.

I've seen such problems before and they are usually the result of missing Content-type: text/html code in the message header.

Not sure if that's the entire story here but I'm a little loath to spend until it's fixed!

Hi Perch,

We've had a few reports on issues or comments about various mail clients, mail servers, spam filters, etc. We'll be releasing a minor update next week to addresses those issues and... We already have a major new feature commissioned for the release after that - tracking and reporting on the number of opens per mailout.

I'd like to send you a couple test emails to see if we can track down the issue you are having, can you send me the email address you've subscribed to the newsletter to to dave@interactivetools.com? Thanks!

Hi Dave

Ok. However please note that it was only the last newsletter that didn't render properly. The usual/monthly iTools newsletter always looks great.
