Seems OK. The point I made was that the configuration and operation of the autoresponder (knowing how those things work) is something that needs to be done *outside* the realm of the plugin, after which you can integrate the plugin with that system. If the plugin can help control some of the autoresponder options, great, that's what it's there for, but knowing how and why those things work is system-specific, not part of the plugin and is the homework that needs to be done before using the plugin (merely a front-end to the autoresponder system). ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
