Newsletter confirmation emails..
« on: August 03, 2013, 03:18 AM »
Like shown below keeps trickling into my mailbox. Is there a script that's misbehaving? I've had about 8 of these during the last 5 days.


Greetings.

  Someone, hopefully you, has subscribed your email address to the
DonationCoder.com monthly newsletter.

  If this is correct, please click the following link to confirm your
subscription (all on one line):

https://www.donation...XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

  If you did not intend to sign up for our newsletter, you do not need to
do anything, simply delete this message and your email will be removed.

  Thank you

Jup, I should be able to dig them all out if it helps? But let me first check if they are identical..

yes please, could you forward them to me ([email protected]); the email you are describing should only be generated if you actually visited a link in another email to confirm your membership.

And I'm afraid I spoke too soon, I usually don't empty my trash very often but of course I did so last night, duh.
Tell you what: I'll just click once again on the confirmation link, and then when/if the next confirmation email comes along, I'll forward it to you in a jiffy. :)

Sounds good -- if anyone else gets multiple copies of the same newsletter email please do let me know.

As you can read here, I've actually been doing a major purge of the newsletter mailing list, by sending out an email to everyone on the forum with a link to click if they want to continue to receive the newsletter.
