Hallo,

zu diesem Thema erlaube ich mir, ein Posting von Ole Brockhuus aus der 
Group typo3.directmail (jaja, sowas gibts), das grad reingekommen ist, 
hier rein zu c&p'en:

Hi List

I had a meeting with Jan-Erik who's in charge of development of the direct
mail module.

We agreed to share some work of the future development where he would do 
the development and I would contribute with ideas and designs for the 
workflow of the module hopefully making it easier to use. I would 
definitely like any kind of input to this part.

We agreed on the following development. (Please contribute and correct 
if I'm wrong and we definitely need a WIKI or something to structure 
this better):

Roadmap for Direct mail

planned development

In proces

Take the extension out of web->Plugin, and then

remove the dmail class from the T3 Core.

Next steps

redesign userinterface, so its more intuitive

Making categories work as in normal plugins (elements on pages as in
tt_news) and not as now in TS-config and remove the limit of 32 categories

Give editors rights to certain categories, so that they can't send to 
all users but only the categories that are in there own targetgroup

Let logged in users subscribe without the verification proces of sending
mails back and forth.

Listing categories for subscriptions should be dependable on user rights
(login) and views (maybe targetgroups og just by using storagepages). 
Just like ordinary modules (i.e. tt_news), so that lists easily can be 
customized without changing a template every time. In other words 
repetitive fields like products in tt_products.

regards

Ole Brockhuus
