| If I send out an email campaign, I can't use custom http headers to know that a user arrived from the newsletter. |

| If you are sending out an email, you can use whatever url form you like? This is talking about links to third party sites, not your own. |

| Do you really need to? Basic statistics will tell you if the email campaign had any significant effect on site visits. |

| ▲ | hananova 6 hours ago | parent [-] | | If you insist on knowing, include a different url in both that goes to the same place and use your damn server logs. You don’t need google analytics and whatever. | | |
| ▲ | vel0city 5 hours ago | parent [-] | | Isn't putting in a different query string "including a different url that goes to the same place"? Isn't this functionally the exact same? | | |
| ▲ | zaphar 4 hours ago | parent [-] | | presumably you control the urls you are sending in the email. As a result if you want to use query strings that's fine. The issue only arises when you use query strings to implement tracking on someone else's site instead. |
