Last 30 days Dec 08, 2009 issue 6 (Problem with CampaignSendTest() Api function) reported by vicky82davim - I am working on integration process of mailchimp with my website built with python (django framework) using mailchimp apis. I am using CampaignSendTest() function to send test emails. sometimes this function works fine but most of the the time, i am getting "504 gateway time-out nginx/0.5.33" error. So i increase my server execution time to 5 min. But if i increase email address to around 5-10 emails the same error starts appearing. I am try to figure out why this problem arises but no success. Can anybody help me why this happens or why it takes so long time. Please help ..................................................

There are more work to, however: * The method "campaigns" has changed signature and we need to reflect that as well. Maybe there are other methods with changed signatures as well. * Issues related with tests breaking need to be resolved * I'm not convinced of the idea of adding *kwargs everywhere -- we know exactly what parameters the Mailchimp methods takes and I like the fact you can inspect the Python methods and see what you are supposed to supply.
