AcyMailing vs Emma: at a glance
What is AcyMailing?
AcyMailing 11.1.2 closes holes that let strangers read or unsubscribe any subscriber.
AcyMailing is a Joomla and WordPress email marketing extension. Release 11.1.2 is a security update: it fixes an unauthenticated leak of subscriber data including the subscriber key, anonymous unsubscribing of any known address, logged-in users changing other people's subscriptions, unchecked post-subscription redirects and campaign archive pages opening without permission. It follows 11.1's privacy work, a per-subscriber tracking switch and fixed one-click unsubscribe.
What is Emma?
Emma is systematically rebuilding its multi-subaccount layer with folders, subscription centers, and conditional contact fields.
Emma is in a multi-release push to make subaccount management substantially less painful for enterprise and franchise operators. The recent feature set — campaign folders, per-subaccount style guides, internal sending accounts, cross-subaccount contact history, and a central subscription center — all address the same underlying problem: organizations running many sender identities on one platform have historically needed workarounds to keep campaigns, branding, and contact data cleanly separated.

AcyMailing

AcyMailing 11.1.2 closes holes that let strangers read or unsubscribe any subscriber.
◆ Current state
AcyMailing is a Joomla and WordPress email marketing extension. Release 11.1.2 is a security update: it fixes an unauthenticated leak of subscriber data including the subscriber key, anonymous unsubscribing of any known address, logged-in users changing other people's subscriptions, unchecked post-subscription redirects and campaign archive pages opening without permission. It follows 11.1's privacy work, a per-subscriber tracking switch and fixed one-click unsubscribe.
◆ Where it's heading
Since the 11.0 security rework in July, AcyMailing's releases alternate between privacy features and fixes for flaws in how subscriber actions are authorized. 11.1.2 shows the 11.0 rework left gaps in the subscription paths, now patched with ownership checks and security tokens.
◆ Prediction
A security advisory with full details is promised once users have had time to update, and further 11.1.x patches are likely as those details invite scrutiny of related code paths.
Emma
0.0MKT AUTO
Emma is systematically rebuilding its multi-subaccount layer with folders, subscription centers, and conditional contact fields.
◆ Current state
Emma is in a multi-release push to make subaccount management substantially less painful for enterprise and franchise operators. The recent feature set — campaign folders, per-subaccount style guides, internal sending accounts, cross-subaccount contact history, and a central subscription center — all address the same underlying problem: organizations running many sender identities on one platform have historically needed workarounds to keep campaigns, branding, and contact data cleanly separated.
◆ Where it's heading
The product is evolving from a standard email tool into a structured multi-brand command center. The conditional contact fields addition hints at a data model expansion that would support more sophisticated segmentation logic as organizations grow their subaccount footprint.
◆ Prediction
The logical next step is cross-subaccount reporting and approval workflows — once organizations have separated their brands cleanly, they need visibility across all of them without logging into each one separately.
