I was going over the script & noticed the newsletter option. Is this going to be good for large newsletters (10,000 or more letters). I wasnt sure if it was able to handle a large newsletter. Also how would I go about backing up the email database.
Nope...
It works okay and relatively fast with around 500 email addresses, but anything larger than that, you can expect your browser to crash.
Also, it depends on your ISP and how many email messages they allow per minute to be sent.
About backing up your email.db, this was discussed in this Forum awhile back. Widgetz, another LINKS user, wrote some cool codes that backed up all the database files into a .gzip and .tar file.
It works well...Search this Forum for tar, backup, etc.
