E-Mail marketing with OpenERP Poweremail

Asked by Pieter Baele

I want to send an (html) mail with attachment to a selection of partners.
How can I do this with Poweremail?
What's the best way to configure/integrate this with OpenERP so I don't need seperate E-mail marketing software?

Mass mailing to partners is already supported.

How to do it?

Easy. Create a new template with the object as Partner.
The To field can be populated with the ${object.address[0].email} or if you have some dedicated email field customised into partner.

Now, take a list view of partners, select the partners you want to send the email to and then click on action and then choose the wizard action which would appear there.

It will create the mails for you.

New feature required: Sending the single attachment. We need to think how this could be done. May be a feature that could be funded

That was really fast (thx!) didn't know it was that easy :-)

But I guess all mails will be sent immediately? (could be marked as spamming...) Or are they sent in batches?
Still have to figure out a way to automatically unsubscribe.....
