Gammadyne Mailer Database Support

Gammadyne Mailer integrates directly with virtually all databases, including Access, Act!, Centura SQLBase, dBASE, Excel, FoxPro, Oracle, MySQL, and SQL Server.

Database integration has many uses, including:

  • The mailing list can be located in a database table.  No importing is necessary!
  • Outgoing emails can be personalized with database data.
  • Data from incoming emails can be added to the database.  This is very useful for automating mailing list sign-ups, processing form data, etc.
  • Recipients can be removed from the mailing list.  This can be triggered by incoming email (opt-outs or bounce-backs) or manually from Gammadyne Mailer's user interface.
  • Recipient data can be modified/updated by incoming email or manually with one of the list management tools.  When performed automatically, the user will typically set up Gammadyne Mailer to search a database column for an email address, then modify another column on the row (if a match is found).
  • The mailing list can be segmented or filtered according to the contents of any column.

Is a database required?

A database is not required.  Gammadyne Mailer can send to a list of email address in a plain ASCII text file.  It can even merge in data from a comma-separated text file (.CSV), like this:

id,name,email,age
1,John Public,jpublic@foo.com,26
2,Jane Doe,jane@bar.com,30
3,Jim Smith,jsmith@foobar.com,28

Integration Details

Gammadyne Mailer connects to an external database via ODBC (Open Database Connectivity).  This is a Microsoft standard that is designed to allow any application to access any database.  ODBC is already installed on most machines.  It is often installed along with the database, and by Microsoft Office.  ODBC can also be freely downloaded from Microsoft.
