--- Comment #37 from David Cook <dcook at prosentient.com.au> ---
I created a "weekly mailing list" type feature as well recently. I haven't
uploaded it yet (due to time constraints and possible intersection with this
patch), but it seems to be a bit different.

I'm wondering...why would the mailing list be for new "items" rather than new
"bibliographic records"? In my case, I opted for the latter, as I thought it
made more sense to email people when a new record has been catalogued as it
represented a completely new material that they might find interesting. 

If you send mailing lists based on items, couldn't you be receiving emails
about items that already exist in the system? Or do you only send out emails
for new items for a bib where there haven't been items before? I could see that
being quite useful.

The downside of my feature is that you might add a record but not have any
items attached, so while people would know about the new record, they wouldn't
be able to really "use" it. 

Could you explain a bit more about how the mailing lists work, Kyle?
