How can i make sure that the subscriber has read my letter?

This function will be added in the stable version of plugin.

Why are my letters sent so long

For sending letters in plugin used wp_cron – WordPress function for periodic execution of any planned actions. This function depends on the traffic of your site: the more visitors, the faster the letters will be sent.

Why am I unable to send letters to all users at the same time?

  1. Simultaneous sending of a large number of messages can slow down your site.
  2. Your site can be identified as a source of spamming, which can lead to blocking of your website or hosting-account.

There is something wrong with the date and status of my mails in the Sender Reports table while switching between free & PRO versions. Is there any way to fix that?

Try to deactivate and activate the version you want to use (either free or PRO).

This plugin does exactly what it says and is a huge benefit in maintaining contact with our members. It is super easy to set up and simple to use and gives you great control over sending emails to lots of people at once. We had our plugin customised even further which allowed us to select certain roles to have the access to the plugin via the front end thereby eliminating the need to give backend access to too many people. The support staff at BestWebSoft were awesome with this and setup the customisation quickly and charged a small but reasonable amount for the additional work they undertook. If we ever had a problem they would fix it without delay. I thoroughly recommend this plugin cannot praise the support staff any higher they are awesome.

Features I had, like saving my settings, were moved to the "Pro" paid version when I updated the plugin! FYI, you create higher-value versions by ADDING features.
