Talk:Email-article.php

there is an interesting thread here that i would like to reference. I would like to resurrect my email to wiki-article request, and put a bounty on it. I have a big need for this for project management; but i want it to be well-thought out (no spam, users only, etc) aran, would you care to bid for a wiki extension to receive email to an existing article or to create it? --Phalseid 09:15, 25 May 2007 (NZST)

This needs to be re-written since email-article.php has ben upgraded and changed.

Decided I hadn't quite done enough productivity, so I've extended the email-article to handle mailing to the contact lists.

There's a few differences to note: firstly its not done from the contact list article, but from the email-article link. If you're in the postmasters group, then a dropdown of all the items in the "Contact Lists" cat show up.

Those articles used to be the articles with embeded table, but now that "Contact Lists" cat contains the contact sub-cats - go and have a look and you'll see what I mean. If you make up a test mail list like you were asking me to get from div0 you'll be able to test mailing an article to it.

It's much better this way because all the mailing is now handled by emal-article.php whether its just one address or a list.

Also for convenience, you can use the , or ; separated list of addresses directly in the email-address field instead of selecting a list (or if you're not a postmaster - might have to limit that)
