We've prepared a number of useful questions, which we've been asked:

What is Mailsync?

Mailsync is a lightweight self-hosted web app. We are making it easy for you to sync your users data between your database (MySQL/PostgreSQL) and the coresponding lists in Mailchimp and Campaign Monitor.

How does Mailsync work?

Mailsync connects to your database and users table. You provide the user details (like name, email) and the lists you use in Mailchimp and Campaign Monitor. Now Mailsync will easily sync your users, every time you need to send a newsletter.

How do I get Mailsync?

Download the archive from http://mailsync.github.io.

I downloaded the application, what's next?

That's great :) You are one step away from experience Mailsync. We've prepared a nice guide on how to start Mailsync.

Where I can find how Mailsync works?

You can find a quick overview how it works here.

Do you save the api keys and database details?

Yes, on each step we do save the details you provide us and you don't have to enter this information again.

Where I can see all of my syncs?

You are looking for the dashboard - this is the first page you see after logging.

Does it work on Windows or Mac?

As you've probably noticed in our requirements the app requires Debian or RPM distro to install it. There is a web part (really nice actually), which you can access on Windows or Mac with any browser. So, as far as you can install the application on a machine with the given requirements, you can access it through the browser on Windows or Mac. If you still need something specific for Windows or Mac, feel free to make a pull request.

I have few ideas how to improve the service, what do I do?

Thanks for asking, we'd be happy to hear them - get in touch. If you are a developer, you can even fork the repo, code it and make a pull request!
