MySQL database table question

[xlrustylx]

Hi there,

I'm fresh new to any kind of server-side programming and I have a question. I am making a form for a site and I need to collect a first name and an e-mail. The table will be used to send out a newsletter to everyone in its database. I want to know if there is any other information I need to include, like a time stamp or anything like that.

Thanks,
Jared

I only marginally less new than you but, I would suggest that if you know that the name and email are all you need from the person, then that's all you need.

However, after having sent the newsletter, you may want to store the date that it was sent, especially if you are going to send them regularly.

Okay, Thanks. That is basically all I needed to know for now.
