Affordable SMTP Service For Oempro Customers
We noticed that several shared hosting customers are having big problems about sending mass emails through their shared hosting mail servers. This kind of problems are quite normal for shared hosting environment because almost all hosting companies “limit” the sending in shared hosting to avoid any service outage.
We established a special business partnership with leading SMTP service provider company SMTP.COM and now we offer affordable highly reputable SMTP servers to our fellow Oempro users.
If you are having email delivery problems, having huge spam filtering issues, you don’t need to struggle with technical issues and settings to make your mail server redundant. Our new SMTP service will let you to send emails easily and provide you the highest delivery ratios.
For more information about the new SMTP service, please visit Octeth.SMTP.com website.
We integrated Octeth.SMTP.com feature into Oempro v3.6.7. Please check our next blog post about how to set it up in Oempro v3.6.7.

Development Progress Update
Hi Everyone,
We are receiving emails from our fellow customers about the coming soon upgrades and their release dates. So, I decided to publish an official announcement and inform everyone about the development status and scheduled updates.
Before listing the schedule, we apologize for a short delay on the release of product updates. Due to high amount of daily work and insufficient human resources, product updates are delayed. We are now hiring several PHP developers and designers to gain more human resources and speed-up the release duration.
In a month, you will get Oempro update. The details are;
Oempro v3.6.5: This update will contain fixes for latest bug reports (most of them minor) and it will also include some important improvements such as new send engine (requires PHP5), improved content fetching, etc.
Next month, we will start releasing new versions of all Oempro plug-ins with several new features. Addition to this, we are also preparing for the release of our new software. We will publish more information about this in following weeks.
If you have any questions or comments, do not hesitate to contact us anytime.

Important Announcement About PHP4 Compability
As you may know, PHP4 is going to be discontinued by their developers by the end of 2007. You can read more about this important decision here and here.
We are now improving and updating our product source codes to get benefit of PHP5 functionalities. This will result with several incompatibilities with PHP4 environments. Unfortunately, the new benefits of PHP5 can not be used without dropping the PHP4 support.
We strongly recommend you to upgrade your web server PHP version from 4 to 5. Otherwise, you will have an unsupported PHP4 version in just a few months which may cause several security and script incompatibility issues.
To learn your PHP version, simply create a test PHP script and write the following PHP code inside that file:
<?php
phpinfo();
?>
Save and upload this file to your web server and run it through your web browser. If your PHP version is older than v5, we strongly recommend you to contact your hosting company and learn how to upgrade your PHP version.
The new Oempro version which is going to be released in just a few weeks will be PHP5 compatible and will not support PHP4. We are implementing special improvements in Oempro’s send engine modules and this action requires PHP5.
