Patron Emailer Plugin - Help
Hi, Wih Koha 18.11.09, I am planning to use Koha Patron Emailer plugin - bywatersolutions ( https://github.com/bywatersolutions/koha-plugin-patron-emailer/releases/tag/... ) for generating (letter)- No Dues Certificate to patron's Inbox. After performing "run rool", this Plugin says, it has sent email to respective patrons uploaded using CSV. But, when I cross check Patron notices Tab - Type is set to "Print" instead of "email" and status is always pending instead of "sent". (checkin, checkout, overdue notices are functioning). Any help would be appreciated and very helpful for me to avoid manual work of writing no-due certificates in each semester end. -- *Satish MV* Librarian - Govt.

Satish: pls be careful which using this plugin. Send only in small batches of 20 - 30 emails at each time. During the 2020 covid lockdown one of my clients had attempted to email their readers (approx 830+) about new on-line resources they could access from home. The client was using a gmail email account. Google's anti-spam AI filters marked the emails as spaming activity and permanently disabled that email address. Thankfully it was a new email created for that purpose, imagine the mess if it was their library's regular gmail acct!!!
