Could you guys please implement the following features if possible:



Create a separate email newsletter option just for the affiliates.



Create a feature that automatically adds a buyer to your getresponse or aweber email list.

Isnt $10 to mail 450 ppl a little much lol.



Anyways, I sent out an email with the title



[%firstname%], help me out.



And it actually sent it out as [%firstname%] instead of their first name ! how come?



and thanks, looking forward to it.

You should actually be using [%first_name%], and of course such variables will only work if you Enable Templated Email for the message; the full list of substitution variables we support for emails are documented here:

Our Newsletter function is only provided as an extra-charge convenience for merchants who hardly ever need to send mass emails and/or don't wish to bother enrolling with a third-party specialist mailing list service like Aweber for their email marketing needs. Since sending Newsletters does impose a fairly significant performance "hit" on our servers, and we don't have the economy of scale for mass-emailing functions that a dedicated mailing-list specialist would have, we charge to recoup the increased overhead costs we incur by sending Newsletters, and this also serves as an incentive for merchants to use a third-party service like Aweber which would be both better and cheaper than we could ever be for most routine bulk-emailing needs anyway.

Yes well the [%first_name%], worked in the body but not in the title. Little embarrassing and impersonal :(.



Anyways, Thanks :smiley:

Could we possible get an integration with GetResponse, after all it is one of the mostly used auto responders out there.

I can ask Development to consider it, but it may be a fairly low-priority wishlist item, since we already integrate with Aweber for merchants who need to integrate E-junkie with a full-service mailing-list specialist service.

I'm interested in starting an eNewsletter but need to know the percent breakdown in costs:



Creative%

Production%

Content%



Can someone tell me what to expect?
