Hello, Some time ago I have made some work for sending "bulk" emails... Let me explain how it works, because I think that may be a good start
1) Mailing List management Two Entities MailRecipient (emails) and and MailingList (groups) in a many-to-many relationship I made an UI for managing Lists and email, insert / remove bulk emails automatically handling spaces, commas, carriage returns, duplicate addresses, etc... 2) Mail Templates In a very similar manner as Appe Mail.app templates, I have made a folder with some mail templates 3) Email Sending The user can Send an email using a web form that contains an html editor or can send an article published in the website (in my case), I also handle attchments sending them as links. I have a Class called MailTask that take care of sending email in a separate Thread while the user can continue to use the webapp/website, and can evantually close session without stopping sending. 4) Email Read checking The MailTask thread personalize each email with a special blank image ( 1px ) that call a Direct Action that set a timestamp to the MailRecipient raw so you know when that email address had last access. Please see screenshots at: http://downloads.insigno.net/Amedeo/MailingList.pdf Please le me know what you think about this and if you have some ideas to improve this work. Actually is still not an indipendent framework, but i'm working to make it universal and share it with wo community.
