Joomla 1.5 no longer supported
We are very happy to announce the release of Mailster 1.2. This version is no longer compatible to Joomla 1.5, however it is compatible to both Joomla 2.5 and Joomla 3.5 which was only released a few days ago.
Joomla 3.5 - support for database changes
Updating to Mailster 1.2 is key to being able to use Joomla 3.5 because of some internal database changes in Joomla.
New Features
Reuse Server Settings
Setting up a lot of mailing lists was never easier: you can now easily re-use the email server(s) of other mailing lists.
This applies both to inbound (IMAP / POP3) servers and SMTP servers.
Plus: we included the settings of some popular email service providers directly for you to choose from.
Cleanup Bounces
One of the highlights of this release is that Mailster will now clean up the email archive to remove unneeded bounces/blocked mails after a certain time period.
This keeps the database small and fast.
"Sender Name via List Name"
We added a new setting to have the FROM name be generated from the sender name and from the mailing list name.
Example: "Bob via Project Team".
