This software is Adware which contains rotating advertisement at
top of the screen. In addition to this, it also contains 1 line
advertisement at the end of every email that you send to your
subscriber. Please take note.

Requirements

1. Pentium or better PC.
2. Windows 95/98. NT not tested.
3. 32MB RAM or more.
4. 5MB or more disk space.
5. Access to internet.
6. At least 1 POP3 account.

Configuration of the software

1. POP3 Host, SMTP Host, UserID, Password, Text in subject line to subscribe,
   Text in subject line to unsubscribe are all a MUST to fill in.

2. Please also specify whether your ISP uses SMTP or ESMTP.

   If SMTP, please uncheck Allow Authetication check box.

   If ESMTP, please check Allow Authentication check box.
   Please also specify whether ESMTP uses the same UserID and Password
   as POP3, otherwise, please specify UserID and Password for ESMTP.

3. Put a text like "subscribe" in Text in subject line to subscribe. This
   will be used to match any incoming mail that has this word in subject
   line and the user will be added into the database. Do the same for
   unsubscribing. Since this program allow management of multiple ezines,
   please specify each of them identically to avoid unwanted error.
   The filter of the subscribing and unsubscribing command is exact
   match but case insensitive. Thus "Subscribe", "sUbscribe" are
   all same with "subscribe". However, "Suscribe", "subcribe" are
   not same with "subscribe". More than 1 word is allowed.

   There is possible to use your regular email address as subscribing
   and unsubscribing request from your subscriber. However, caution
   is needed when try to check mail. Please use EzineMailer to check
   mail before your regular mail client.

   This is because EzineMailer will filter whatever email with
   subject line text matching subscribing command that you specify in
   program configuration and delete the email from mail server. This
   will ensure each subscriber that send subscribing email request
   to your regular email will be added into the database. The same
   goes to unsubscribing.

   e.g
   command for subscribing = "subscribe" in subject line
   Say 10 emails with the above command in your email like you@a.com
   Total email messages in you@a.com = 20
   Email client : Eudora Pro
   
   If you check mail with Eudora Pro before EzineMailer, all 20 emails
   will be downloaded and 10 emails with subscribing command will
   be treated as normal email. You most probably will miss these
   10 email addresses when you check mail with EzineMailer.

   If you check mail with EzineMailer before Eudora Pro, it will
   first filter the email, match 10 emails with the command stored
   in configuration file and subscribe user into database and
   finally delete it from mail server. Later, check your email
   with Eudora Pro, this will get 10 email messages.

   REMEMBER DO NOT DELETE EZINE NAME "DUMMY" IN EZINE MANAGER BEFORE
   ADDING ANOTHER INTO THE DATABASE.
