Newsletter > Configuration > Bounce Mail

Subscriber delete on Bounce

This setting takes either Yes or No value. Set it to Yes in order to delete a subscriber from your database immediately when an email to the specified subscriber has bounced back.

It depends on the ‘Bounce Count’ setting below. A subscriber won’t be deleted immediately if the bounce count is higher than 1 in the setting below.

Bounce Count

The default is set to 3. This is the number of times to bounce a subscriber before it is deleted. Must be a number 1 or more.

Admin Notify on Bounce

By setting this to Yes, the plugin will send you (the administrator) an email notification when a bounce notification has been received.

Bounce Receive Email

This is the address of the email alias  that is used to recieve the bounced email

Bounce Handling Method

There are two types Email Piping (CGI) and POP/IMAP Email Fetch. The default is Email Piping (CGI).  This is the method to use to retrieve bounced emails.

We recommend that you use the POP/IMAP email fetch method because it is automated and doesn’t require extensive setup like the email piping method.

Check Interval

This option specifies how often how often  the should mailbox be checked for bounced emails. This option will only be visible if ‘POP/IMAP Email Fetch’ is selected.

POP Host

This is the host name that is used to check the email. The POP/incoming email host name is set to localhost by default. This option will only be visible if ‘POP/IMAP Email Fetch’ is selected.

POP user/email

This the email account that the bounced emails will be sent to. You will need to change this to the appropriate email address that you use. This option will only be visible if ‘POP/IMAP Email Fetch’ is selected.

POP Password

This is the password for the email account that you use for your bounce emails. This option will only be visible if ‘POP/IMAP Email Fetch’ is selected.

POP Port

This is the POP/incoming port number to connect to. It is set to 110 by default which is the standard setting. You may need to check with your service provider if this is a different value.

Newsletter > Configuration > Email Scheduling

Email Scheduling

This is set to “No” by default. Newsletters are sent out immediately.

We highly recommend that you turn on scheduling if you are going to send to more than 100 subscribers at a time. Reason is that it is most likely not possible for your server to send out 100+ emails all at once.

Scheduling Interval

A dropdown list will allow you to to increase the scheduling interval in minutes, once a day, once a week, once a moth etc. This setting will only be visible if email scheduling is set to ‘Yes’.

Keep the interval as low as possible. We recommend ‘Every 2 Minutes’ or ‘Every 5 Minutes’. That way you can have more frequent intervals and less emails per interval.

Emails per Interval

This setting adjusts how many emails are sent out per Interval. The default is 50. It is recommended that you keep this setting below a value of 100 to avoid causing a bottle neck on your email server. This setting will only be visible if email scheduling is set to ‘Yes’.

Admin Notify on Execution

This is set to ‘No’ by default. Selecting ‘Yes’ will send a notification to the administrator’s email each time the queue is fired. It is just a simple email notifying you about the action.

All the way through from Contributors (Level 1) to Administrators (Level 10), you can choose which WordPress user level on your WordPress site has the right to access the back-end of the WordPress Newsletter plugin.

Auto Import WordPress Users

This option is set to “No” by default. This option will import current users into the selected User List (See Users Import List). Obviously it is necessary to create your mailing lists before doing an import.

This drop down allows you to select the list into which WordPress users will be automatically imported as they are registered. Mailing lists are added under Newsletters > Mailing Lists.

WHOIS > Configuration > TLD Settings

A top-level domain (TLD) is one of the domains at the highest level in the hierarchical Domain Name System of the Internet. The top-level domain names are installed in the root zone of the name space. This section allows you to select the TLD’s you want the user to be able to search for and to order the way the list is sorted.

Check all

By default none of the TLD’s are selected. This tick box allows you to quickly select all the TLDS

Inverse selection

By default this is not checked. This allows you to invert the list

Drag and Drop Ordering

You can manually drag and drop the TLD selection into an order that best suits you by placing you mouse over the TLD you want to select > holding down the left mouse button > moving the TLD up or down in the list > release the button to complete the process.
