Integrating Email Autoresponder With Other Software

The Remote Control Feature

Email Autoresponder can be controlled from other software by “remote control”.

You can subscribe new contacts and unsubscribe existing contacts by getting the other software to send Email Autoresponder an email.

Note that for this to work, your Email Autoresponder system needs to be set up to react to incoming email as described in the installation instructions.

 

First you must enable the remote control feature in your profile. You must also set a username and password to ensure that it is only you who can remotely control your system.

The “remote control” email must be sent to remote@yourdomain.com (insert your own domain in the place of yourdomain.com) and it must have a subject line in the format shown below. Unknown entries can be omitted.

owner=p1+password=p2+action=p3+name=p4+email=p5+autoresponder=p6+p7+TRAp8+ip=p9+drop=p10

The parameters p1 to p10 are explained here

p1: Your owner name : Required

p2: Your password : Required

p3: subscribe or unsubscribe

p4: Your subscriber's name

p5: Your subscribers email address

p6: Your autoresponder's subscription address (without the domain)

p7: plain or html

p8: The tracking tag to be associated with the subscription

p9: The IP address to be associated with the subscriber's record.

p10: Set to yes if you want the drop rules for the autoresponder to be actioned by this subscription.

For example, the following subject line would be valid:

owner=abc+password=12345+action=subscribe+name=John+email=john@johndoe.com+autoresponder=info+ip=10.10.0.3
