Links Email question
I notice that when you Subscribe to the Links 2.0 email function it ask for the Name and Email. Where does the name go? I only see a list of email. Is there any way to call the name in the newsletter?? for example Hi <%name%>

Let me know. Thanks!

Been a long time since I've played with Links 2, but I think its either <%Name%>, or <%Contact_Name%>

Cheers

Wow That was quick! Hmm I just tested it. It said Unkown Tag: Name and Unkown Tag: Contact_Name in the email.



Also is there a way to have the user confirm the email before it gets added to our database?
