Anyone have this working currently?
We’re inviting known members to our system and they’ve already signed up (opted in) to receive updates from us. We’re trying to get 100% away from our mailing list software and use only Discourse. The mailing list software is SimpleLists and it DOES NOT allow them to confirm or do anything else before they start getting emailed notifications.
It’s just a mailing list, but in order to ditch it, we need to make sure that when we post to certain sub/categories, they get those notices by email. We’ve solved the notification part for existing users, but they have to have activated their account to be an active user (to receive those sub/category topic notice emails).
We want to just import the users, have it assign passwords and email them (password or a link to enable it). Then they’re activated at that point and will receive the appropriate notices by email automatically.
Possible?
