Version 5.1.108 - January 11, 2010
Disabled web based unsubscribe option based on problems with constant blacklisting of our servers due to over vigilant companies who do not understand that we are enabling people to follow the rules, not breaking them.
If you were using web based unsubscribes and already have a bounce email account set up, you simply switch from web based unsubscribes to email based unsubscribes. No other configuration needs to be made to make the switch. Now when the customer clicks unsubscribe, it opens an email to be sent to the response address you have set up and EMD will read the subject line and update the unsubscribe date in the list.

Version 5.1.101 - May 20, 2009
Updates to both Vista and XP installers.
Version 5.1.100 - May 1, 2009
New EMD build for Windows Vista. This version is only available for Vista operating systems.
There are differences in the Vista installation over the normal installation, primary the program folders. If you already updated your regular build and are able to use EMD effectively, you DO NOT NEED the latest Vista installation, you can just carry on. But if you are new to installing EMD and are on any flavor of Windows Vista, use the Vista download button.
If you want to use the Vista build, but already have EMD 5.0.140 or earlier installed, you can uninstall that version then download and install the Vista build. If you want to preserve your existing campaigns, go to C:\Program Files\EmailMarketingDirector\ and find the Content folder, the campaign.sto file and the campaignlists.sto file and save them to a safe directory like your Desktop.
Once you install the Vista build, move those to the C:\ProgramData\EmailMarketingDirector folder. The programdata folder is typically hidden, so make sure you select the show hidden folders option.
