Hi Andrea,

Nice work with this extension. I'm going to use it for my current  
Radiant project. I'm not so sure I like the idea of having to setup a  
scheduled task to call the rake task at intervals to get newsletters  
sent, but on the other hand it's not very nice to make mongrel send  
them immediately either.

I'm planning to add some basic tracking stuff to your extension. I was  
thinking to add two tags:

<r:newsletter:tracking:bug /> (inserts an image tag which invokes the  
server when the user opens the newsletter. This should be inserted in  
the newsletter layout)
<r:newsletter:tracking:link url="...">...</r:newsletter:tracking:link>  
(wrapping links so the clicks are tracked before the user is  
redirected to the given url)

- but the bug could also be inserted always, and all links could be  
wrapped automatically.

What do you think?

Best regards,
Casper Fabricius
