Re: Handling invalid recipient in mailing list
Hi Folks Robert details all the steps to keeping an email list clean and valid. Having done that in the past and for a list of 5000 addresses I would say it is a far better deal to go with one of the email newsletter companies. Having tried several I can highly recommend mailchimp http://mailchimp.com/ They offer several benefits. 1. They clean the bounced email and keep the list valid. (no programing to write and validate) 2. They have deals with ISPs to recognize their bulk email as legit. When I was doing that privately it was a headache to stay on top of all the ISP's spam protections and have my server continually validated. (And if you are on a shared server forget it as you will be vulnerable to all the other user's bad practices and reputation) 3. The time saving was well worth the $s 4. If you do decide to use a provider check their rules about establishing your list. (some such as icontact will require you to do a new optin on your already established list, and then they will block anyone who does not re-optin. Those address could then never be resubsbcribed even by their owner.) Rob Robert J. Voyle, Psy.D.

Re: CF Builder 3
Hi Steve I use cfbuilder 3 on my local development of applications (Win 7 machine). Having migrated from using Homesite (which I still use for its ease of extended find/replace across entire web projects) I am not very impressed with cfbuilder. It could be very useful and has some promise but I would not pay money for it again, and if you already have a template editor you like don't waste your time trying to get a free version working. While you can select a range of editor preferences color coding etc. You will have varying and frustrating results with many preferences not sticking after you close and reopen the program. The syntax error reporting and color coding is insanely erroneous and unhelpful. Many of these bugs have had multiple bug reports made at Adobe but nothing has been done The built in FTP is so complex to setup, I gave up and went back to an external FileZilla program. For a relative beginner to the deeper complexity and power of CF (despite having used it for many years) I found it very difficult to find the settings that control many of the preferences.

Re: Non-profit donation providers
Hi Al Thanks for this. I will pass the info on to the group I am working with. Rob On 2 Nov 2014 at 11:16, Al Musella, DPM wrote: I use paypal.. Couldn't be easier, and they give a discount on the rates to nonprofits... however, there is one big problem... Bad people have been using my donation form to test stolen credit cards. They use the stolen credit cards to make a small donation to see if the cards work. I have the security set so they need address verification as well as the security code and still many get through. When someone complains of fraud, paypal removes the donation and a big fee (aorund $25.. I forget the exact amount)... and threatens me that they will cut off my account if my fraud rate doesn't go down.. I called them and they offer no help at all. So what I do now is have my server send an email to my phone when a donation is made. If it looks suspicious, I click a link in the email that will ban that IP address from making a successful donation (anything they try gets them a page that says the donation failed. ) Then I go back and reverse any donations that got through with that IP address or amount around that time. Most of the time they are all the same amount.. We have a $5 minimum, so they are mostly $5. Before I had a minimum, they were usually $1. I also allow only 3 attempts per IP address per day.. even if successful - it will alert me and I check to verify the donations they made were good.

Hi Folks I have a basic .html site that I have converted to a coldfusion site. since there are many old .html links out there I added the following to my notFound.cfm file: cfif notFoundUrl contains .html cfset newUrl=http://www.mydomain.com; replace(notFoundUrl,.html,.cfm) cfif fileExists(newUrl) is yes cflocation url=#newUrl# cfelse cflocation url=http://www.mydomain.com; /cfif /cfif Works fine if the file exists but throws an error if the file doesn't exist rather than redirecting. Also which log file would have the error in it as I can't find the error in any of the logs What am I missing?

Windows server 2008 or 2012
Hi Folks I am looking at changing VPS providers to maintain and upgrade CF I have an option of Windows 2008 or 2012 server. The reccommendation is 2008 and was wondering what others think. I spent a week a year ago migrating from 2003 to 2008 and would rather not go thru that hassle again in a few years time and so I think starting with 2012 would be a more practical option.

Hi Russ creating objects is beyond my expertise and I couldn't get the sitepoint idea to work. Kept getting an object error.

Re: Hiding email address from spiders
Hi Al I agree that many captchas are miserable unreadable and discouraging. My web site and web skills are pretty low tech. I created the captcha on my site in a graphics program 8 or 9 years ago when I became inundated with spam from my contact page. My captcha doesn't change, it is one simple image. When I created it I thought that I would need to change it or create a more dynamic version with differing text as other sites were using. As it turns out I have had zero spam since I created and installed it and I have not had to modify it at all. Rob Robert J. Voyle, Psy.D.

Re: Hiding email address from spiders
Hi Al I replaced all email addresses with a coldfusion email form and then started getting a bunch of automated spam. Putting in an image based challenge that the sender must manually replicate stopped all the spam dead. The form is at http://www.clergyleadership.com/email.cfm Rob I had the same problem.. what I did is store the email addresses in a database and then replace the email link with a link to a feedback form on your website. When people want to email someone, they click the link, fill out and submit the form. They never get to see the actual email address. In my case, I needed to stop the recipients from getting spam, so I have the emails going into a queue where I have to approve them before they are sent. I check it every few hours - just a page of all of the emails. Usually easy to spot bad ones.. and I have a radio button for send / delete next to each one. Takes a few minutes a day. and got rid of 100% of spam to the recipients. I just use an autonumber to link them, but you can use a UUID so people can't easily guess the sequence. ( I use a form field to make it a little harder.) ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:348033 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm

Re: outlook 2007 and cfmail
Hi Ken How are you composing the email and how many email clients are you concerned about. Outlook 2007 is a real bear. I have just spent days tweaking an email newsletter to work on all the mail clients I can find. Its a hodge podge, a little xhtml a little inline css. Don't put the css in the header as it will be stripped out by many web based mail clients. and some clients don't do style tags in the body as amny recommend/ It is better to use inline styles. Makes it messy but you can get something reliable.

Hi Ken I agree with you on your outlook on outlook. I have even questioned the legitimacy of their birth. I haven't tried sup.

Re: Downloading database tables
Hi Nathan I am using mySQL. On the VPS i have php based myadmin. Doesn't do a lot for me and then I tried to download that to my local machine. After dowloading and supposedly installing it I wasted a day scouring the web trying to configure it. I gave up in utter disgust at my inability to get it to run. Even cursed the existence of whoever wrote the %$#%^ thing. On my local machine I use mySQL workbench. While it was easy to install and runs well I have not found it intuitively easy to use (I am a real newbie to mySQL and databases in general) I actually find it easier to use the windows command line to create and alter tables. My basic tables are not going to be large I am just looking for a way in CF to export the data in the web table and include it into the local table. possibly exporting as a CSV file or creating a cfinclude on my local machine that access the web file. I don't think I need anything as extensive as your project, I just want to access the data in already formed tables. Yes it will take some time, but after the time I have wasted on propriety stuff like php I would rather create something that I know how it works and meets my needs. And once it is done can be applied to several other projects I have in the works. Rob Robert J. Voyle, Psy.D.

I actually have a semi-functioning model of downloading one database and applying it to another, even works across database engines (e.g. download from oracle and apply to derby). Plus it takes snapshots so you can save versions of the database, including basic schema snapshots that you can import into another database, too.

I'd open source it, but like I said it's not fully functional (not even fully baked), and I don't know that there's a real market for it.
