<h2>Dynamic Mass Mailing Lists</h2>
<p>Without this addon you have to choose between providing a dynamic domain and
letting your mass mailings reach all partners that match it, or being able to
unsubscribe to certain mailing lists while still being subscribed to others.</p>
<p>This addon allows you to create dynamic mailing lists, so you can now benefit
from both things.</p>
<a name="configuration"></a>
<h3>Configuration</h3>
<p>To create a dynamic mailing list, you need to:</p>
<ol class="arabic simple">
<li>Go to <em>Mass Mailing > Mailings > Mailing Lists</em> and create one.</li>
<li>Check the <em>Dynamic</em> box.</li>
<li>Choose a <em>Sync method</em>:<ul>
<li>Leave empty to use as a manual mailing list, the normal behavior.</li>
<li><em>Only add new records</em> to make sure no records disappear from the list
when partners stop matching the <em>Synchronization critera</em>.</li>
<li><em>Add and remove records as needed</em> to make the list be fully synchronized
with the <em>Synchronization critera</em>, even if that means removing contacts
from it.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Define a <em>Synchronization criteria</em> that will be used to match the partners
that should go into the list as contacts. Only partners with emails will
be selected.</li>
</ol>
<p>You can also load an existing filter over contacts:</p>
<ol class="arabic simple">
<li>Click on "Load filter" button below criteria.</li>
<li>Select one of the existing filters.</li>
<li>Click on "Load filter" and you will have that filter as criteria.</li>
</ol>

<h3>Usage</h3>
<ol class="arabic simple">
<li>Go to <em>Mass Mailing > Mailings > Mass Mailings</em>, and create one.</li>
<li>Select as recipients a mailing list.</li>
<li>On "Select mailing lists:", choose one mailing list with dynamic flag
checked.</li>
<li>Before sending the mass mailing, the list will be synced for having latest
changes.</li>
</ol>
<p>When you hit the <em>Sync now</em> button or send a mass mailing to this list, its
contacts will be automatically updated.</p>
<p>Pay attention to the messages shown to you that tell you about some non-obvious
behaviour you could experience if you edit manually contacts from a dynamic
list.</p>
