We really want to send an email out on the 1st and 3rd Tuesday of a month, or at least on a Tuesday every two weeks, but there doesn't see to me a way?

Unfortunately, it's too complex to solve via the blog. You'll need to talk to our support team: http://mailchimp.com/help Hi Steven,

I've set the pubdate to the current time in the feed so it will send items that have been sent already too. I'm guessing mailchimp uses another way to check wether it is new content. Is this the case? And is there a way to bypass this?

This would send any new posts that have been created since MailChimp last checked.You might even let publishers use PubSubHubbub, so that MailChimp gets *pushed* new feed updates, which you then forward by email, rather than you having to poll for new posts in the feed really frequently. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PubSubHubbubBut, before you get a chance to implement that, something like every 10 minutes would be fantastic.My main use case for this is in offering users an option to "subscribe by email" to comments threads on blogs, or discussion threads on forums, for which I already have an RSS feed. This model would be useful for all kinds of alerts and notifications derived from a feed. I'm not really thinking of anything high volume, but just contexts where immediate notification is all important. Using MailChimp, it would be great to offer, say, daily digests of the posts, as well as "as it happens" notifications. Hourly updates would be great.

Ben,

I believe you guys shouldn’t have to do polling as it is a pain and you’ll always spend more and more resources, but always be late.

Superfeedr can do the polling (or find other techniques) on your behalf and then push you the content as soon as it’s there.

I’d be thrilled to have Mailchimp in our customer base!
