It has only been tested on 3.6.3 and higher so I cant vouch for it. Ill see if I can set up some tests on 3.5 series. What version are you on?

I'll be happy to fill your tank. I'm guessing that would be equivalent to paying you about 10 cents per hour to develop this for me.

Thanks for putting in the time and knowledge to to this.

That's a lot of money. I will have to think long and hard on that one. What's it offer over combull. I have my own hacked up version of that but it's pretty messy code to begin with. However, it was free.

Since I have a major huge event going on at one of my sites tomorrow I went ahead and ordered. The market works with license free once I cleared the session cookie. It went to paypal, paid, redirected back here, got your PM thanking me and telling me it's now available in the d/l section. However it's not there.

It was a flub up on my part entering the prices for the Euro and Dollar. It is sorted now.

I used to use commbull a couple years ago. I'm not 100% sure where its at now, but the standard package is only about $15 above combull. This is a quick overview of GAZ feature set so you can compare it:
  • Scheduled issue generation (set up time frames to generate issues automatically)
  • Automatic sending. You can manually send out or let the cron job do it (between these two features, you don't ever have to touch it once it is set up)
  • Multiple newsletter systems. You can have multiple newsletters each configured with different modules and layouts, covering different aspects of your site.
  • Module system lets you snap and configure blocks of code around to suit your needs
  • Newsletter browser that lets users browse previous versions of newsletters
  • Each newsletter subscription can be configured via usergroups and subscribed/unsubscribed from the usercp and their admincp
  • Each newsletter is cached for speed and lower memory usage. You users will get an email in the style they use on your site and the language (and text direction) they use on your site.
  • There is the ability to move much of your CSS inline for better gmail and hotmail support
I guess that about covers an overview of it

I can understand why people feel its more $$ in dollars, so I am glad there is another option out there for people that need a newsletter system... sadly I can't just eat the design time cost because of the weak dollar. Makes me wish I was still in the US so it wouldn't make much of a difference and the UK peeps would be ecstatic over the conversion rate
Guess thats what I get for coding in one of the most expensive countries in the world

Default How much/how to add Brand Free?

We bought a license during the promo sale a bit ago, but it didn't come with Brand Free and I don't see an option to upgrade to it? Please help us buy you a couple more cups of petrol
