RE: Sending messages

Title: Message

What I've done is create signatures within my email client that say all the things that I like to notify my members of - queue reminder, graphic not showing, page doesn't display, can't find fragment, etc. etc. etc. Easy to create and it has anything in it I want to say, including the ring URL, where they can go to get their code, etc.

When I want to send an email to a member - I go to Ringlink, click on the email link - up pops my new message, I type the subject (where I include the site ID of the site I'm writing to), click Insert/signature -> and choose the appropriate signature for the purpose.

Do Ctrl+Enter, and I'm done.

So the only potential for errors is chooing the wrong sig, or typing the wrong site ID in the subject.

Quick & easy. With the added advantage of having a copy of the sent message in case I ever want to go back and see when I emailed them and/or why.

Hi,

Okay, you are a new Ringmaster, and you want to send a reminder to one or more of your members.
Would it not be easier to select the form you want to send within the Ringlink program with your info already entered by the program, and then select from a list to which site/s you want it sent to, than having to go to the Ringlink website customization page, find the template you would like to use, copy it to your e-mail client, look up the url for your webring, site e-mail address/s, site url/s and site id/s of the member website/s you wish to send the reminder to, and do all this without making any mistakes or getting pissedf off???
Surely a webring program should make things easy for those that use it, even if they do love their e-mail client?

Can somebody explain to me what's wrong with using an email client when
sending email messages?
