When you add new users, i.e. from the frontend when they create an account, make sure that they have this flag set. That can be a hidden field.

Also on a group in the backend, you can go to the group properties and apply the email allowed flag to all users in that group - see dump.

Those are the only options.

Got it. Thanks

This solves it for now. But ideally, I would separate the notifications emails (that are not rquiring an acceptance) from the Newsletter.

It is true that in my case all new users will be allocated to the Customer group and have the "Email Permission" checked by default.

But what about a user that first subscribes to newsletter. It is assigned to the Newsletter group and "Email Permissions" is checked. Then it decides to unsubscribe (for various reasons).

Then, he visits the site again, and decides to create an account (we already have his previous Subscriber profile but with the email check off). This means that we are merging the acount (see my other thread about merging Subscriber and Customer accounts) and check the "Email Permission" option. This makes him again subscribed (Presence in Newsletter group and "Email Permission" checked).

If we can opt about checking for "Email permission" or not during the campaign creation, any similar issue would be solved.

Does it make sense?

Thanks,

Adrian

I understand.

But I do not think we would add the possibility to send to users that do not have email allowed. That is what we in Danish call a "Skråplan" :-).

I agree. If you open this possibility, the users might misuse the functionality.

OK. It's good to know. I'll find other ways. I will probably use the "remove from group" option on unsubscribe or create a separate Recipient provider.

Thanks a lot,

Adrian
