Lead engineer at MailChimp here. Funny you should mention it, but tomorrow we're going to be launching Google Authenticator and YubiKey integrations with AlterEgo so you can use those as you like. We're also working on…
Yes - the pricing is flat rate. Right now charging for inbound emails is turned off since the feature is so new and basic, but inbound emails will be indexed and tracked the same as outbound emails, so they'll be…
Well, supporting unsubscribes in transactional emails can sometimes make sense, like with notification or confirmation emails where the user might want the option to not receive them. With others, like receipts or…
We've considered it, but we're still working on our reseller/integrator story.
You can customize DKIM without a dedicated IP. You do need to have a paid plan to get the dedicated IP, but that's really because you need at least a few hundred thousand emails per month of volume before getting a…
Yes - you can use Mandrill for newsletters if you want to code your own subscription logic and store your own list of emails. MailChimp is quite a bit more expensive than Mandrill, but it does a lot more too. MailChimp…
Not yet. The inbound system right now is really basic - we'll parse out the messages and deliver them to a webhook, but we won't munge it much beyond breaking apart attachments and things.
A viable solution going forward is to have browsers implement both the vendor-prefixed and non-vendor-prefixed versions of a property, but use the vendor-prefixed one preferentially. That would allow developers to use…
This is only hypocritical if when Stallman says "phone", he always means "cell phone". Just to be a devil's advocate, he could be talking about a landline which generally doesn't track movement, doesn't run software,…
Any coding problem that could feasibly be completed in an acceptable amount of time would be too small to actually tell me what I want to know. I mostly don't want to know what algorithms you're aware of or how quickly…
I like this, supposing that it lets extensions request permissions at the point when the user tries to do something requiring the permission, rather than at install time. At install time, the user has no idea why the…
The Lua community has been historically more focused on embedded and scripting scenarios, and less on building a comprehensive platform for libraries and applications (compare the quality and availability of LuaRocks to…
No, bulk importing does not send a resubscribe message. MailChimp assumes that if you have access to the address list, then you have permission to send.
Copying this from my blog comment answering the same question... Pseudo-transactional campaigns are very "pseudo". MailChimp campaigns require static predefined content. If you actually wanted to vary the content from…
No fine-print. Our high volume plans for large email lists are not unlimited, but smaller lists are completely free to send as much as they want. In practice, you'll hit our anti-spam limits long before you hurt our…
We had a fairly conservative cross-validation function that tested the results of the genetic optimization for a first pass. Following that, Omnivore was put into "observation" mode, so we could verify that the results…
