    1. Outgoing Messages>Facebook/Twitter>Recipients

      In the messages dashboard under outgoing messages in the receipients column it allows users to view which lists they have submitted deliveries to. This feature would be extremely useful for Facebook and Twitter messages as well. I handle several different FB/Twitter accounts, I find that this would allow me to verify that I have selected the correct accounts for each message and to avoid the mistake of posted to the wrong Facebook wall.

      • Invalid email address should not be allowed to be imported

        When i use the API and add the same accounts with invalid characters and domain extensions, import is successful - when it should not be.

          • Add a report that shows the optimum send times for a batch of emails

            • Dynamic way to measure "engaged subscribers" on a rolling basis

              I'd like a non-manual way to measure, for example, subscribers who have opened any of our emails in the last 6 months. This is not currently possible in the Segment area. I am stuck at the part where I create the rule "Contact open rate is greater than 0" - but I need the rule to say "Contact open rate is greater than 0 WITHIN THE LAST 6 MONTHS". Can that time frame portion be added?

              • Field type of timestamp that can be used in workflow and automator

                I have more than one job that updates the customer fields. We use automator/workflow to send out a custom email based on these fields. Since I can't used the modified date in the contact record, because mulitple calls could touch that contact, an custom timestamp field would be great.

                • add "wait until list size reaches a certain amount" before sending a message to the Delay function in WorkFlows.

                  In an effort to drive social engagement and email acquisition we would like to offer the ability to "vote" for the next promotion by submitting their email address through a Bronto form. Once the list reaches a certain size WorkFlows would send an email to the subscribers.

                  • Include a First Name field on the Forward to a Friend form.

                    I'd like the option to include a First Name field on the Forward to a Friend form. That value would then be used to personalize the forwarded message when the html included %%fname%%.

                    • More granularity on user permissions.

                      Similar to user permissions under who can edit specific messages, I would like to see a similar method for who can edit specific templates. Especially around transactional message templates.

                        I would like to compare my email results I receive in Bronto to past email campaigns that I sent out before Bronto.

                        • Unsubscribe by Entering Email Address

                          We have an issue that when one of our contacts forwards on an email to another recipient, and that recipient unsubscribes, it unsubscribes our contact - not the forwarded recipient.

                          A solution would be to require people unsubscribing to enter their email during the process to verify their address - rather than by the simple click of the "unsubscribe" button. This would ensure that the right contact is being unsubscribed from the database, and avoid inadvertent unsubscribes from forwarded emails.

                          Thanks.

                            • Allow segmentation by profile update (managed preferences) and allow report to identify date profile updated.

                              I see a couple of others have requested this as well. Primary function is to be able to segment and identify users when, why and how they updated their profile and be able to pull a report by date range.

                                In the content > email message > template are of the application it would be useful to move folders. This would allow for better management of the messages.

                                  • Message Level Custom Tags

                                    It would be nice to have have a "Message" level Custom Tag. Your template would use a custom tag that pertains to one message only.

                                        Can you develop a way to use an RSS feed to populate content in an email? Whenever we update our blog, we'd like an automated, branded, auto-content-populated email to be sent to those who subscribe to that feed. Campaign Monitor has it, like this: http://www.campaignmonitor.com/blog/post/3662/rss-to-email-reinvented/

                                          • Any way to increase the "TEST" delivery number to more than 50? We send a "preview" with comment/note to internal staff/reps

                                            Any way to increase the "TEST" delivery number to more than 50? We send a "preview" with a comment/note to internal staff/reps, which is ~120. Before we send to the larger list of consumers and subscribers. But have trouble when we can't send the preview to that many people. I would send as a regular message, but there is no way to add an optional "note" above a regular send. Thanks! - Zach, Klean Kanteen
