MailGun

No more MailChimp! Last Friday MailChimp lost the ability to read my RSS file I was using to create email newsletters. This was always a dodgy approach at best, but MailChimp has been truly awkward to work with (the fact that it's an advertising platform geared toward 'audiences' and 'campaigns' makes it even more so). So today I learned the MailGun API and wrote a script to send email newsletters directly from gRSShopper. It's a lot easier to work with. I still need to rewrite the subscribe function (unsubscribe is at the bottom of your email and should work, though you can leave the testing to me :) ). If you have any problems with the new version of the email newsletter, please let me know.
