Screenshot About:
Dada Mail is an intuitive, Web-based email list management system, which runs on any hosting account that can execute custom CGI scripts. Dada Mail is also a conceptual art project. Dada Mail handles double opt-in/opt-out subscriptions, and can send complex announce-only and/or discussion mailing list messages. It also provides archiving, viewing, searching, resending, and syndicating (through RSS or Atom) sent messages. Dada Mail produces valid XHTML and sticks to best practices when creating email messages.

[»] Very nice
by David J. Sankel - Jan 4th 2005 12:10:47

Dada mail is quick to set up, easy to administer, and really nice looking. I especially like the idea of getting rid of the whole idea of mail controlled systems.

A few gotchas that I found with this package.

1) Although this is mailing list software, it doesn't come, by default, with reply functionality. The only way to post to a list is to use the web interface. There is, however, an extension that can be used for this (dada_send.pl), but little work has been put into it.

2) For the dada_send.pl extension, you are highly limited by what you can use for the lists' email addresses. Only 16 characters and alpha-numeric at that. So your software-announce list won't work because of the '-' and the length. This is unfortunate since the convention for mailing lists uses dashes to denote subsections and get quite large in length.

Overall, if this software works for you, you're in good hands. The unfortunate mailing-list name limitations will keep the rest of us shopping.

    Actually all work on dada_send.pl has been stopped. In it's place is at the moment, dada_bridge.pl:

    http://mojo.skazat.com/support/documentation/dada_bridge.pl.html

    Which can set the mailing list email address to what ever you would like.

    Check out dada_bridge.pl - which is a replacement for dada_send.pl - there is no limitation of the name of the email address used to send mail to - it's as arbitrary as an email address itself can be :) Cheers, Justin

[»] cron job?
by baohx - Nov 8th 2001 18:27:48

Hi, a kinda-newbie here...trying to set up mojo for a sendmail environment. I've seen in places that I need a cron job to allow the script to work correctly, but I don't know what to actually do. If you have an example of setting mojo_send for sendmail from someone, can you please post it, or mail it to me?

    Figured out the cron thing, but I don't want mojo_send to send a mail to the mailing list email...I want it only to send to the people on the list. How can I change the script to do this?

[»] Unprintable characters... fixed!
by justin simoni - Aug 11th 2000 02:46:45

ok, i don't know what was going on (here, here's me wondering:)

but i turned on "show invisibles" in BBEdit and right where you were having trouble were some really weird things, about 8 upside down question marks highlighted in red. I don't know what that's supposed to mean, maybe a gremlin, but the real mystery is why it worked for me, on different systems, on different machines, and not for _some_ other people. hmm...

If anyone has any insight on this, it would be much appreciated, this is probably a BBEdit thing

I posted the "clean" versions up at:

http://mojo.skazat.com/downloads

and tested it out, downloading the tar, untarred it in a directory, editing it in pico and chmoding it, worked just super.

I'll make sure the new version gets the same treatment before i make too too many changes. To be honest, Mojo Mail 2.1 looks like it'll be released by september, its already got some amazing new features :)

    [»] Questions/Suggestions
    by Eric Pretorious - Sep 5th 2001 01:22:08

    I've cruised MM's home and it looks really slick. I've got a few questions though:

    1. Is it possible for subscribers to confirm subscription requests via e-mail?
    2. Can archives be ordered by different criteria? e.g., ...by thread, by author, by date?
    3. Can the message fields (From:, To:, Subject:, etc.) be displayed in archived messages?
    4. Can Mojo Mail be configured to work with MHonArc?
    5. Does Mojo Mail handle bounced messages?

      I'm all about style. or... styyyyyyyyle.


      > 1. Is it possible for subscribers to

      > requests via e-mail?

      naw, 2 reasons, (1 I HATE email interfaces and (2 why
      reinvent the wheel? I think majordomo does a fine job
      with email itnerfaces - if that's what you want. Mojo
      uses an html link that's individual to each subscriber.

      I've had lists that are handled BOTH by majordomo and
      mojo, I just symlinked the two lists together and bam!
      you then have a email interface and a web-based
      interface. not too shabby.




      > 2. Can archives be ordered by

      > 3. Can the message fields (From:,

      naw, just by posting order... and reverse posting order,
      again - why reinvent the wheel? Monarch does a super
      job with that, I don't want to waste precious time
      redoing stuff, i realy like girls.


      > 4. Can Mojo Mail be configured to work
      > with
      > MHonArc?

      yeah, just make Monharch a subscriber and away you
      go!



      > 5. Does Mojo Mail handle bounced
      > messages?

      naw, i'm working on that right now, prolly going to
      swipe some code form the majordomo2 project for the
      deed. talk about a major pain to do!

      I would use mojo if you don't have access to
      majordomo, it takes a different, fresh perspective on
      the whole thing, it's more of a web-based application
      than a Mailing List Manager. oh, but it can send mail
      and stuff.

[»] weird characters
by justin simoni - Aug 11th 2000 02:20:28

hey daniel, i've had the same problem with other people, but never myself :) I used BBedit to make the script, and saved the file as unix not mac so i don't know what the doodle is going on,

what download did you use? I've tested the zip, tar and sit archives (all of em) and everything works fine for me, even when i untar them on the server and check the syntax there.

I'll go through the code tommorrow and figure out if i can see whats up. i'd write the code out here, but the PHP freshmeat gizzmo is coughing on it,

[»] Mojo.cgi
by Daniel Feenberg - Aug 9th 2000 20:01:45

I had some problems with getting this going:

At line 244 there are 8 unprintable characters after the left parenthesis which bothers my Perl interpreter and both
of my text editors.

At line 981 there is a complaint from Perl that
$old_password needs an explicit package name.

Perl version 5.6.0 for FreeBSD i386.

I'd be interested in the solution to the latter problem (I
am assuming that I can just remove the unprintable characters from line 244).
