As installed, DynamicMailer will start up with default settings for a number of preferences.

General

Primary DNS
    Primary DNS-server. It can be given both by domain and by IP-address. DynamicMailer works with DNS-servers only via UDP protocol. The access time to DNS-servers, which the program uses by default, is 2-3 seconds for some users. You can reduce this time up to 0.5 second, using the DNS servers of your ISP. You can also determine the DNS-servers yourself with IPCONFIG utility using the key /ALL (Windows NT), or WINIPCFG utility ( Windows 95/98). These utilities are included into OS. Also you can use DNS servers from this list if you can't get your provider DNS address for some reason or your provider server works unstably.

Send Mode
DynamicMailer will start up with default settings.(Direct - No SMTP Server Required.)

Direct - No SMTP Server Required
If checked, DynamicMailer will attempt to deliver each message via a direct connection with the recipient's SMTP server. Otherwise, the message is delivered to your own SMTP server, which then routes it to the recipient.

Notes:

Express - High speed sending
If checked,Using this option allows you to use the SMTP Express high speed message sending system with the exist SMTP List.

Try to delivery by name
    Direct delivery. For example, direct delivery to server gorlach.koenig.su for address alex@gorlach.koenig.su. Even if the direct delivery is set, it is used only when DNS-servers have not returned the addresses of mail servers. Using this option IS NOT RECOMMENDED.

Timeout in minutes
    Specify the time limit that should be used for making valid connections. Set this value to zero to disable it.If you are using a slow internet connections then you should set this for the maximum time of 10 minutes.

Max threads (0..99)
    The number of delivery threads - how many messages will be sent at the same time. By increasing the number of threads you increase the network traffic and computer loading too. It is recommended to use 15...25 threads for 33.6k modem.

When sending contacts, pause every
    If this is checked, then when sending contacts, DynamicMailer will pause every specified number of contacts for the specified number of seconds. This setting can be useful if the SMTP server is getting overloaded.

Sender

From name: The name that you want to appear in the From section of the email
From address: Your email address. enter your/any e-mail you want to be displayed in the body of the message.
Reply name: The name that you want to appear in to the To field when recipients click the Reply button in their email client.

Proxy

Use Socks Proxy Server
    Proxy server is a special program which allows LAN users to work with Internet (when only one machine has the "real" IP address). Consult with your network administrator regarding firewall/proxy settings, if you're not sure how you're connected, and how  to set appropriate options here.

Specify  your Proxy Server

Address:  Proxy-server address. May be either domain name or IP-address. Examples: proxy.ecore.net, 127.0.0.1.

Port:  Usually, it is 1080. Avoid to confuse Socks Proxy with http and ftp proxies, which are on 3128 (8080) and 3121 ports by default. The program does not work through http or ftp proxies.

Use authentication (RFC1929)(At present,DynamicMailer1.0 does not support )
    The server requires authentication, i.e. requires user login and password. In most Socks realizations, the login and password are transferred as a plain text, as described in RFC 1929 document.

Login:  The name (login) of Socks proxy server user.
Password:  The password for Socks proxy server user.
 

Mailing list

<1> Mailing List File

Other

Current tag indicator character

A tag looks like: |Name| where | is a tag indicator character.   Use two tag indicator characters in (the) row if you need an actual tag indicator character to appear in the message.  Tags are case-insensitive, so |name|, |Name|, and |NAME| are all treated the same.  Your message template will generally contain a number of different tags such as:
Dear  %Title% %AuthhorName%:

DynamicMailer uses this as an indication that the values in the mailing list columns labeled  Title  and  AuthhorName  are to be substituted for those tags in the message for each selected recipient before their individualized message is sent, for example, messages for successive recipients might expand to:

Dear Mr. Jones:
Dear Dr. Francis:
