1: Problem whit long url in Bulk mail
Posted by sergio cubero on 12/10/09 08:17 PM
Hi everyone.

Bulk-mail create log url, e.g:
../spam?_dummy=on&recipients=13291150&recipients=10102184&recipients=1115658&recipients=3008697&recipients=1493291&recipients=24562581&recipients=1611472&recipients=5377242&recipients=5923928&recipients=13290405&recipients=1660672&{...}&recipients=8683690 form send mail.

I think Aolserver cut the long url and bulk mail fails.

He doesn't send mail.

Where can I change settings to stop this from happening.

Thanks.

Best regards.

Hi Sergio,

It's your browser and not AOLserver that is cropping the query string.

Try sending the request as a form POST instead of a GET.

I suppose the recipients should really be stored in the db, and just referenced in the URL by a single identifier.
