There is not much time elapsed since the last article about planned improvements for the zikula mailing system and now there are some news for you. The things did not go the way I wanted to have them first and so the improvements were not implanted into the zikula Mailer module and directly into the zikula core but the solution the core developers of zikula and myself found is also very good for you: The planned Mailer improvements are now available as a new module and can easily be installed and used. The best thing is: the advanced Mailer module is automatically integrated into the Mailer module with zikula 1.2.0 - no modification is needed. If you want to use the module with another older or the actual zikula version 1.1.2 this is also easily possible. There just have to be added some lines of code to a function in the Mailer module.
At the moment ifs-net.de develops new zikula software that can be used for flexible mailings and newsletters. Two modules are under construction at the moment: mailz (module for flexible mailings and newsletters) and Mailer 2.0 (development of the zikula core module). This article was written for other developers and interested persons in zikula software development to introduce them into the new modules and functions. This article is also a call for other module developers to create and provide own plugins for mailz to have multiple plugins for our users when this free software will be release in the initial first version.
