Im pretty sure nothing happens and im not talking about the direct mail 
extension but the da_newsletter_subscription.

Im thinking about joing the two extensions, since the direct mail didnt 
handle categories very well, it looked to me as you have to enter the 
categories directly in the template-file. Not very usefull for normal users.

By the way, is there some other "get started with the direct mail 
extension"-documentation, than the tutorial extension. Its way too 
superficial and not really suited first timers.
