I have mailer service where users can upload an .xls file with emails and some other user related data to send an email campaign. I was having some timeout issues since it takes some seconds to process (as I do some validation and configuration for each email to be sent, eg: save records to database, check if an email was sent in the last 30 days, create personalised html code for each email (to create links that contain the email address as a parameter, etc). After some research, moving this to a delayed job seemed reasonable, as suggested in this rails cast . The only problem is that I am

I have 4 templates but one returns error: "reject_reason": "invalid-sender" . I didn't find this error. in Docs.

I'm testing the Mandrill API and sent an email to my GMail account. In the API logs, it says: "status": "queued" According to https://mandrill.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/205582717-Why-does-a-delivered-message-say-queued- : most times Mandrill can send email much faster than recipient servers are able to accept or process it GMail is not able to handle my one email that I sent? A queued response in the Mandrill API is not the same as a queued response from a recipient server. When you send a message through Mandrill, you first relay it to Mandrill, Mandrill processes it, and then Mandrill

I need to add some params to all links from a Mandrill template before sending. For example, in the template there are anchors like <a href="http://google.com>click here</a>" . What I need is to add a string (set of params to every anchor), like this: <a href="http://google.com?param1=value1&param2=value2>click here</a>" , dynamically Is there a way to do it through the API?

Your link would look something like this: <a href="http://google.com?param1=*|PARAM1|*&param2=*

I'm trying to use Mandrill templates to send order tracking emails. Using the mc:edit works well for simple text like <span mc:edit="ship_id">ship_id</span><br> I was wondering if there was a way to pass the href link in a variable i.e. tracking_url <a class="mcnButton " title="Track order" href=tracking_url target="_blank" style="font-weight: bold;text-align: center;">Track Order</a> I'm using Djrill for Django and here's the code which sends the email so far, and I'd like to add tracking_url as a template_content variable or something similar msg = EmailMessage(subject="Track your order",

I am trying to send emails that contain non-ASCII characters using the SmtpClient and MailMessage classes. I am using an external mailing service ( MailChimp ) and some of my emails have been rejected by their SMTP server. I have contacted them and this is what they replied: It appears the subject line is being Base64 encoded and then Quoted-Printable encoded, which generally should be fine, but one of the characters is being broken across two lines. So when your subject lines are a bit longer, in order to be processed correctly, it's broken on to two lines. When using UTF-8 quoted printable
