Talk:Opt in e-mail

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] Nonce

Do you have to use the word 'nonce'? In the UK, a nonce is a convicted paedophile - a habitual kiddyfucker. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 195.172.157.90 (talk • contribs) 2007-04-05

What would be appropriate? I don't care for that rather obscure term either. -Amatulic 16:21, 10 May 2007 (UTC)

Token would be appropriate. Confirmed opt-in generally works by sending out a token then receiving that token back. -24.1.246.216 05:21, 26 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] E-Mail Authentication

E-mail authentication generally (at least nowadays) refers to domain-based authentication mechanisms such as SPF, Sender ID, DomainKeys, and DKIM. What is being called "E-Mail Authentication" here is actually generally considered address verification, address validation, or confirmation. 24.1.246.216 05:19, 26 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Free optin resources

here's a free php optin download www . sendblaster . com/free-bulk-emailer-download/free-optin-formail-scripts-mailinglist-subscription/ wonder if it can be included in external links —Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.223.28.52 (talk • contribs) 2008-01-24

No. There's nothing notable about that package versus any other package, therefore there is no reason for Wikipedia to highlight it above others. There's no reason to include the link other than promotion, and Wikipedia isn't the place for that. -Amatulić (talk) 22:17, 24 January 2008 (UTC)

it's a free resource for someone who wants to build an optin mailing list —Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.223.28.52 (talk) 13:48, 25 January 2008 (UTC)
