Mailing Lists: Smoother Sign-Ups, Confirmations and Sequences

This release smooths out sign-ups, confirmation emails and email sequences for mailing lists.

For your subscribers:

  • Someone who signs up again before confirming gets the confirmation email again, so a lost email no longer leaves them stuck.
  • A broken or expired unsubscribe or confirmation link shows a page in your list's theme instead of a generic error.
  • Lists without custom styles show their public pages with the default look.

In the dashboard:

  • The Emails page labels automatic emails (campaign, sequence or confirmation), and sequences no longer offer confirmation emails as steps.
  • Editing an email opens that email in the composer, and saving confirms that it worked.
  • Adding an address that has unsubscribed explains that only the subscriber can re-subscribe. The API answers 409 SUBSCRIBER_UNSUBSCRIBED in that case.
  • Sequences finish right after their last email, and each step's status matches what was actually sent.
  • The list details page has breadcrumbs.

The API documentation for subscribers is updated.

Security. During a review of the platform we identified some security gaps and fixed them. No action is needed on your side.
