Registered Users - Mass Mail
Hello,

I have around 700 registered users and I need a mass mail program just like the 'mail link owners' one. Can this be done easily?

If it is easier (as I need this a.s.a.p.) to import these email addresses into the 'newsletter' mail thing?

Please help me,

Thanks,

Isn't that what the "newsletter" link is for?

It automatically inserts all the new links, but you can have it insert anything you want.

I don't know. If it is, it is not working... I really need to mail all the registered users out at once and I need this a.s.a.p.

I hope you can help...

If you have a list of registered users, -- go to the

admin-->registered users -->view --> list all

If you see a list of users, then if you click the "newsletter" you should be able to mail to them all.

I see about 700 users, but when I click 'newsletter' I see nothing...

I am not sure why they are not going into there...

That is very odd.

What exactly is happening?

I've set up at least 2 dozen sites, and haven't had a problem with the registered users not showing up in the Newsletters area. (I've had problems making mail work, but that was a Unix thing usually.).

Did you make any changes to the users tables? Are you storing your users somewhere else? If so, you'd have to change the table the newsletter routine requests the names from.

Well, I had Alex heavily modify this for a different project which is linked into the registered users...

This could be the problem. How can I do this? What do I need to change?
