Swati Goyal , 30 July, 2010

At JoomlaXi we are constantly implementing new ideas to add in the development process. We're proud to welcome a new innovation- XiUS Email. It is a new functionality in JoomlaXi User Search through which it is possible to send Email to selected users.

Brief Introduction of XiUS Email:

Over the last couple of weeks, we introduced several new capabilities in XiUS to fulfill searching needs and expectation. Here we come with a new feature by which user can not only search users but can also send mail to filtered users. This mailing to users feature is named as "XiUS Email". XiUS Email is the most progressive and easy adaptive emailing functionality. By using XiUS Email, User can send mails to searched user. For example, If you want to send emails to users than you simply need to search users accordingly and you can easily send Emails to them individually in selected users as well as to whole group.
