Re: [GSAS-board] Newsletter by email

[Erik Olson <erik@thekrib.com>]

I've got an idea Steev... If this is popular enough, we could add a new 
field to the database, indicating whether or not the member would like 
their newsletter e-mailed to them.  I think we already have an e-mail 
address field, so we'd just need the one new setting.  Then you could run 
another script similar to the labelgen one that just gives you a list of 
e-mail addresses.  And the labelgen script would exclude the e-mailed 
ones.

If it's not so nice to e-mail stuff this big directly, another thing we 
could do is upload the newsletter to a private link on the website.  Then 
your e-mail just a stub to "the list" that would just say "click here to 
download this month's newsletter".

Anyway, the option's out there.
