some questions
On sign up is there anyway to stop bots (you know numbers/ letters image?)

Template choices or the ability to re-design them?

Program gave me sticker shock, but am interested in finding out about the above.

Thx

Hi,

Because we have email validation built in, there's really no need to add the numbers/letters image that you see on sites that don't send out a validation email.

The templates are completely and utterly customisable and you can see some of the examples here:

Let me know if you have any further questions whatsoever.

Jack.

Sign up acts like a message board sign up where the user must already have an email address to sign up? Is that correct?

What if you wanted to offer it ala Yahoo mail or Hotmail with a quick sign up, etc.?

Looked at the Gossamer Mail client list and they were either outdated links or not customized. The link you posted is for another product.

Does your mail software have access to many other templates?

Thanks

We can add the image input as a custom mod for you if you like. My apologies, it was early in the morning when I posted the reply and I didn't realise that this was the Gossamer Mail forum, not the Gossamer Links forum.

Here's an example of the custom image mod done for a signup page:

At this point, Gossamer Mail 3 is so new that there are no customised examples available, but as soon as there are, we'll be asking the owners of the sites if we can post their example sites.

Currently the only template set that we ship with Gossamer Mail 3 is the Luna template set which you see in our online demo.

Jack.

We had terrible spam on guestbook and one signup form and this brought it down to zero. Wonder if this can be used with gossamer mail

Thanks

Is that site using your latest software?

No, it's actually still using version 2.
