Send Mail Server

Yes, SendmailServer is reverse MIME compliant and will automatically determine whether an e-mail client can read HTML. If it cannot, SendmailServer will deliver the text version (a setting that can be turned on or off in your SendmailServer account). To create a text version make sure you have the "Create a text version" box ticked. When you finish designing the HTML version in the Editor a second editor will appear where you will need to place the text for the text version.

To personalize a newsletter, go to the editor, First, you have to have imported datasets relating to the e-mail address, then select the area that you wish to personalize, click insert field, select the data set and data type you would like inserted. Save it. Then, do to "Send Newsletter", send to mailing list and go to the line that says "Preview Pane, if you wish to use personalization click here", click in the word here and a preview will show.

You can't. At this time personalization only works in HTML and not in text-only emails. HTML contains code that communicates with our server to register these stats, whereas text-only e-mails do not. However, a work-around is to design a text-only e-mail using HTML, choosing a plain text font such as Times Roman and a simple table structure that replicates the look of a text-only e-mail. This way, you can personalize the e-mail as well as track useful statistics, such as click-throughs and open rates.

Yes - a download link to the file from your email will be almost the same thing as an attachment. It is also much more likely to get through corporate firewalls. In the editor, position your cursor and then choose the Internal Link button (next to the table symbol). Upload your attachment to the Pictures folder - now select it in the list by clicking the 'Select'. Enter your link text (e.g. Download it here) and click OK.

When you are in the Editor, highlight the text you want to link to a later section of your newsletter, click on the external link button, in the URL field type “#” followed by what you want to name this link (ie. #link1) – do not enter anything into any of the other fields, then press the insert button. Next go to the text you want the link you created to link to and highlight that text, again click on the external link button, enter the name of the above link in to the name field (ie. link1) and press insert. Otherwise, try inserting the relevant ‘bookmark’ and ‘hyperlink to bookmark’ code into your newsletter’s HTML code. You need a word that you can associate with each hyperlink, such as head1 for the first headline. Now click View HTML (bottom left in the Editor). Insert the following bookmark code at the beginning of the section you wish to hyperlink to: Now go back up to your list of headlines. Find the first headline (still in View HTML mode) and make sure the words you wish to hyperlink (in this case THE FIRST HEADLINE) are between the Open and Close tags like so: THE FIRST HEADLINE

Highlight the text that you wish to hyperlink. Click the External Link button. Select Newsletter. In the Newsletter dropdown, scroll down and select the newsletter you wish to link to. Hyperlinking to other SendmailServer templates is also the way to create a newsletter with other pages. Make sure you name each 'page' as a separate newsletter. Try to use an easy-to-recognise naming convention, such as EB_Issue1_page1, so that you can find it easily when you are linking to it from your main SendmailServer newsletter.

Yes. Because you can use a newsletter as a template, you can repeat the look and feel to create 'pages' of a newsletter, and cross-link to them from your main page.

Highlight the text that you wish to hyperlink. Click the External Link button. Select http:// in the top dropdown and insert the rest of the URL in the space below.

Newsletters that have been named with an underscore preceding the title will appear at the top of the list. The next sorting format would be alphabetical, in other words, _abc would come before _bbc. However, if you want to ensure that a newsletter appears right at the top, place a double underscore at the start of the title, for example __abc.

In Manage Newsletters create a new newsletter and insert an underscore at the start of the title. Newsletters preceded by an underscore go to the top of the dropdown menu's list with the official SendmailServer templates. For example, _mytemplate will go to the top, unless there is a _amytemplate there (the a being alphetically before the m in mytemplate). A double underscore is useful to add another tier to how you sort your templates, because they get more priority in the list than single underscores.

Yes. You can save your newsletters as templates for use later, along with the variety of pre-designed SendmailServer templates. SendmailServer provides a growing range of templates for different audiences: press releases, invitations, product launches, newsletters, quotes, memos, letters, travelogues, announcements and a series of e-cards relating to holidays or religious holidays. You can also create newsletters based on other newsletters, which is useful when you want your newsletter to comprise other pages with the same look and feel. It's easy to cross-link to these pages. For customers who need help in designing templates, a SendmailServer designer can create one for you.

Yes. You can import HTML Web pages from your computer into your SendmailServer account. When you upload the HTML file's images to your SendmailServer images folder, your SendmailServer newsletter will automatically insert the correct path in the code to the images you have uploaded. You can also import an HTML Web page from another URL.

The code of the newsletter is pointing to images that are not where the code thinks they are. This may be because you selected the wrong option when you imported the HTML file into SendmailServer. If you used the ‘Get HTML from this file’ option, make sure you upload the images to your SendmailServer images folder as well. An HTML file does not have images embedded in it - the images are separate to the HTML file, which is merely 'pointing' to the location of the images. These must be imported separately. SendmailServer will automatically insert the correct path in the code to the images you have uploaded to your SendmailServer images folder. For the ‘Get HTML from this URL’ option, you must make sure that the images are on the website you are importing the HTML from.

Yes. The SendmailServer Editor includes an image button on the toolbar similar to the picture icon in Microsoft Word. A popup window appears with the attributes and current settings of your picture. It contains a list of pictures in your pictures folder, with a preview of the image you selected showing in the lefhand pane. It tells you the Image Source (the URL path to the image in your SendmailServer folder), the alternative text (text that appears when a reader mouses over an image in your newsletter), as well as Height, Width, Alignment (the abs in absBottom stands for absolute), Image Border (thickness of the rule used as a border) and Vertical Spacing. You can change any of these attributes to change the way the image is presented. The image popup window includes other features, such as the functionality to upload images from your hard drive and insert them into your newsletter, or to insert pictures straight from your SendmailServer image folder.
