    We are also most definitely going to be looking for an alternative to Mandrill. It would really suck if we didn't have the ability to use this app, as-is or a new version with another email provider. I have no issues paying $20 for a MailChimp account. The issue is that we are going to need to pay for almost 300K members in order to send our monthly newsletter once per month. That's an additional $1,300 for sending one newsletter. Not gonna happen!

    Same problem here. It's abusive.

    Please @stoo2000, upgrade the Mandrill Bouncer to work with other companies or to work even with our own server smtp.

  2. I guess there is a difference between subscribers and mails sent.

    I don't want to use the subscribers feature of Mail Chimp, just the unlimited emails of Mandrill.

    Actually, I will have zero subscribers.

    But more than 100.000 IPS members to send email to.

    Is my idea correct?

    Or will I have to pay for 100.000 subscribers to send email to each one with mandrill and not use the Mail Chimp newsletter feature?

    @stoo2000 ...here is something else you may want to look at from a discussion about what mandrill is doing. A lot of unhappy folks out there.

    Fortunately when I've start to use Mandrill, I didn't build directly all my email service on top of it. Specially for webhooks that are very usefull. I've made a bundle to use them indifferently from various service. It's available here https://github.com/ScullWM/MailHookBundle and it supports Campainmonitor, Mailjet, Mandrill (sic), Mailgun and Sendgrid.

    As long as you get a paid Maichimp account and don't mind the increased pricing for mandrill...I assume yes.

    And the 20 bucks per month plan is ok? I don't need to use Mail Chimp for subscribers, I just need to send email through IPB. Is that correct?

    It won't work. You'll still come across the index too long issue as I keep saying...  Well you're not going to be happy until you get a step by step so try this. At your own large risk!

    • Backup your board.
    • Take the board offline
    • Backup your board!!!!
    • Add/Change conf_global.php to include 'sql_utf8mb4' = true
    • In the ACP goto Support -> Something is not working
    • It will spit out hundreds of MySql commands, copy them to a text file (there's no chance of them working from Fix Automatically unless your board is small)
    • Run the commands in phpmyadmin one by one or in small batches. Make a note of the tables that give errors about indexes being too long

    For the tables with index-too-long error:

    • Goto the table / Structure tab.
    • Scroll down and click on "+indexes"
    • Delete all but the primary indexes
    • Rerun the Support tool in the ACP, it should give you the correct command to recreate the index with the correct length

    Is it possible to IPS make a script to change that database collation from utf8 to utf8mb4 for those that did not chose this collation on the 3.4 to 4.0 upgrade?

  5. The popup is fantastic on the desktop. But on the iphone 6 and iphone 4 screens it needs some improvement.

    I have noticed that the popup horizontal and vertical alignments are based in the middle of the screen on desktop.

    But in the phones, it seems that this formula does not work. The small screens don't have enough space for the popup, so the width is squeezed to 100%, but the height is not. The top vertical alignment is still in the middle of the screen. That's not good, because the content is not show, it's out the screen, bellow the view area.

    It would be nice if in the small phone screens the popup have the vertical alignment based on the top of the screen, using all the screen view area.

    Thanks!
