Inline pictures support for HTML and HTML with text alternative formats
You can attach the pictures you have included in your HTML document and embed them. The advantage of this is that no connection is required to get the pictures when the recipient opens the message and pictures are shown despite recipient has un-checked the 'Display images and embedded objects in HTML messages' option as contents are not external. Note that MaxBulk has been supporting HTML with online (not inline) pictures since first versions.
Inline attachments support for Plain Text messages
Like Mac OS X Mail you can place attachments anywhere in your message. You can place pictures, PDF documents and so on anywhere in the body of the message. Previous versions were sending attachments as well but they were displayed in the message footer by default.
Inline pictures support for styled Text
This is similar to HTML with pictures and inline attachment above. Pictures can be placed anywhere in the message and will be embedded when generating the message. That way you can create good looking rich text e-mails with inline pictures.
New 'Web page' format, intended to send a web page using its URL
You can send a web page copy using the page URL. Just select the new 'Web page' format paste a URL and send. MaxBulk will get the document located at that address and will send it to your recipients. It is extremely simple and easy to use.
Spell Checker (Mac OS X only)
MaxBulk now includes standard Mac OS X spell checker. It works exactly the same way. (however we can't underline typos in red yet)
Speech support for body, subject and signature
In case you need to hear the message before sending.
ELSEIF and ELSE switch commands support in conditional statements
Now you can include switches inside your conditional statements with no limits, things like:
<IF [[Gender]] = "M">
Dear Mr. [Lastname],
<ELSEIF [[Gender]] = "F">
Dear Mrs. [Lastname],
<ELSE>
Dear friend,
</IF>
Note that you can write them in the same line as well:
<IF [[Gender]] = "M">Dear Mr. [Lastname],<ELSEIF [[Gender]] = "F">Dear Mrs. [Lastname],<ELSE>Dear friend,</IF>
AND and OR logical operators support in conditional statements
AND and OR logical operators are now supported in conditional statements. You can now create far more complex conditional statements using as much AND & OR operators as needed like:
<IF [[Gender]] = "M" <AND> [[Surname]] <> "">
Dear Mr. [Lastname],
<ELSEIF [[Gender]] = "F" <AND> [[Surname]] <> "">
Dear Mrs. [Lastname],
<ELSE>
Dear friend,
</IF>
This is extremely handy for all kind of situations. Actually we got sometimes very specific requirements from schools that need to send custom information to alumni depending and different criteria.
Different attachments can be sent using a conditional statement
We have made possible the use of attachment tags inside conditional statements so you can send the attachments depending on custom criteria. You could do for example:
<IF [[Gender]] = "M">{File:"File1.jpg"}<ELSE>{File:"File2.jpg"}</IF>
Different pictures can be sent in Styled Text messages using a cond. statement
Same as previous. Note however only inline pictures are allowed. You can't place an inline PDF document for example.
