If you use input type="hidden" the spam bot will detect that it's a honey pot. So don't use that. Use CSS to hide it. Spam bots can't check CSS scripts.

Hi,

The basic idea of creating a honeypot is to create one text input field that is hidden by CSS so the spambot will fill that up.

Eg. <input type="text" name="anti…

                Hi,

There is nothing you need to do.

Sendy will be compatible with the new SSL certificates for any Amazon SES endpoints from September 22, 2015.

                Hi,

You should keep everything intact on the old server including the cron jobs. There's no need to delete them. Once the DNS switches over, it'll start using the cron jobs from the NEW server and not the old server. Everything will work …

Sendy has an API (https://sendy.co/api) you can use, so you can 'subscribe' a user to one list and 'unsubscribe' a user from its previous list.
