problem with mailing list
Posted: Wed Mar 11, 2009 11:57 am
I could use some help brainstorming here. I'm setting up a mailing list using a flat file database. When an email address is submitted through a form, it is added to a "unconfirmed subscribers" list, and an email is sent to that address with instructions for confirmation. Once the confirmation process is complete the address is removed from the "unconfirmed subscribers" list and added to a "confirmed subscribers" list. Only then does the address actually receive messages from the mailing list.
So, here's the problem. I need to set this up so that addresses are removed from the "unconfirmed subscribers" list after x number of days, so that they don't just keep piling up. I can't think of any way to do this with php. Is this even possible?
Thanks,
Drew
