Europa-List: Clarification On New Contribution Module Operation...

Dear Listers,

A number of Listers emailed and indicated that, even though they had made a 
Contribution
this year, they still received the Contribution message yesterday. 
I looked into it and I found a slight anomaly (ok, bug) in the new code 
specifically
as it related to Listers that had made their Contribution through PayPal
AND have a DIFFERENT email address for their PayPal account and for their 
Matronics
List subscription.  

If your PayPal account email address is DIFFERENT than the email address you are
subscribed to the Matronics List(s) as, then my new code module couldn't tell
that you had made a Contribution, since it was using the PayPal email address
instead of the List email.

I've fixed this issue for any new PayPal Contributions, but I don't have any 
easy
way of resolving this for any of the previous Contribtuions.  Again, this is
ONLY an issue if your PayPal and Matronics List email addresses ARE NOT the
same.  Otherwise, everything works great.

If you made a PayPal Contribution before 11/09/06 AND your email addresses don't
match, please drop me an email at " info@matronics.com " (do not reply to this
message!) and give me your Name, and both Email Addresses and I will manually
update the records so that things will work as advertised.

Sorry for the hassle!  New code; new bugs...  :-)

To make a Contribution, please see: http://www.matronics.com/contribution

Thank you!
