Embedded URL feature now supports personalization

The JangoMail "Embedded URL" feature allows you to embed URLs within the body of your e-mail message. When JangoMail sends the actual e-mail message, JangoMail will replace the URL with the actual content pulled from that web address. For example, if your e-mail message contained:

[##http://www.jangomail.com##]

then the content from JangoMail's home page would be sent in the e-mail message.

Now, you can use personalization syntax to customize the URL per e-mail recipient. For example, if you are sending to a JangoMail Group with the following fields:

emailaddress
FirstName
LastName
UserID

the body 0f your e-mail message can contain:

[##http://www.jangomail.com/?UserID=%%UserID%%##]

Previously, personalization syntax was not allowed in embedded URLs, but now personalization syntax is allowed.
