Today I’ve released the new version 2.4.7 of EasyMail newsletter plugin.
It’s a release to fix some little bugs and to set up new defaults for cron batch sendings.
Up to now the interval between 2 cron batch sendings has been 10 minutes and the max number of emails per batch has been 60.
From now the interval between 2 cron batch sendings is 5 minutes and the max number of emails per batch is 30.
In this way we can reduce the issue of multiple emails to same recipient experienced by someone. I can see that the problem happens when the max number of emails per batch is high (e.g. 50 or more). Any help about this issue is appreciated.

If you install a fresh 2.4.7 on a blog, nothing more to do: the new settings are automatically loaded.
If you are upgrading an old version of plugin, you can change the cron batch settings following these instructions:

1. in admin panel go to Newsletters → Settings → tab Batch sending and set up the 2nd setting (“Maximum number of emails that can be sent per batch”) to 30; anyway, in that screen I added some help text about cron batch sending
2. in your wp-config.php add this line:

   define( "ALO_EM_INTERVAL_MIN", 5 );

   then to apply this change you have to reactivate the plugin.

You can go on WP.org and download it. Here you are the full changelog.

Today I’ve released the new version 2.4.6 of EasyMail newsletter plugin.
It’s a release to fix a bug about mail engine.
This bug can produce an infinite loop of the mail engine on the same recipient if the email is not correct.
I think it could solve some reported errors about multiple sendings to same recipient or sending never reaching 100%.
We have to thank David of dot4all.it that reported us the bug and the fix.

You can go on WP.org and download it.

It’s a release to fix some XSS vulnerabilities: so you have to upgrade the plugin immediately to avoid potential risks for your blog!

At the moment the plugin is not downloadable, because I’m working to fix some XSS vulnerabilities.
If you have the plugin installed on your blog, I suggest that you temporarily deactivate it.
I hope it could be downloadable again very soon.

You can see the changes in coming version here on WP trac.

Today I’ve released the new version 2.4.3 of EasyMail newsletter plugin.
It’s a release to fix the line endings of some files: now the files are formatted with \n as the line ending (Unix line endings).
I think it could solve some reported errors on installation/use.
Please share your feedback in the forum.

Then, a couple of minor fixes:

• on plugin uninstallation now the unsubscribed database table is properly deleted
• the [DATE] placeholder now is based on get_option(‘date_format’)
