Hello to all,
Here is my thing for today:
What I have is a mailing list, I don't want to offer the people the option of having to pick if they want to have text or html email sent to them.
But what I want to do is in my "introductory" email that I send out once the person signs ups, I want to have an image, say something like 1x1 that with html code that if it is pulled up my script will detect that it is HTML compatible and when the person opens the email but the image is not pulled from my server, it would remain the default text mail.
something to the effect of this:
<img src="mydomain.com/email_tester.php?user=unique_ID_for_user" width=1 height=1>
So if when the person opens their email, if this image is displayed my database is updated. If not, it remains text.
What do you think about this?
Is this possible? Privacy issues?
All comments are welcomed.
Andrey
