Custom Variable Replacements ?

I'd like to be able to pass more details about my mailings thru a link

%%todaysdate%% - always returns TODAY'S actual date- not the launch date of a campaign which isn't useful for much.

I also need something like %%MTA%% - so I know which pool or ip did the actual delivery (for tracking opens/click performance by ip).

Any clues on how I could do this ?

Thanks all

Andrew

Wish I had the answer, but just thinking out loud...

If you are using the URL tracking feature, can this be done? If you do not track URL stats, I can see how it would be possible to add this to the URL as long as the variables such as %%MTA%% were setup.

It may be possible to have something customized so that at the end of any URL (tracking URL or standard URL), you add something like ?MTA=%%MTA%%&SentTime=%%SentTime%%

I have no idea how to put that in place but I see Infusionsoft do that often by mailing links that include data that is to passed onto a form or for tracking purposes.
