    Default Email newsletter script

    Hi

    Anyone know of a newsletter script that I could easliy intergrate into a Asp.Net 2.0 website and hook it into a SQL 2005 database to recover the email addresses.

    Or

    Desktop application that I can load the emaill addresses into and buid as newsletter that way.

    Or

    how many emails can I send at 1 go without running into trouble

    Or
    how can I automate the sending out of the emails so as to send perhaps 50 every hour

    Thanks

    I haven't come across anything, and wrote a quick utility to do this for me.

    It's very crude in that you fill in 2 text boxes (one with plain text version, and one with HTML version), set the Sender Name & Address as well as the subject and then hit send. Behind the scenes it connects to an SQL Database and runs a query to retrieve the addresses into a dataset. It the spawns 10 threads to send the emails allowing it to process a reasonably large list.

    If you don't find anything else, let me know and I'll tidy it up and make it available.

    Hi spire128,

    I have installed MailerPro on one of our sites. It works very well, but the developers at TassieTek (http://www.tassietek.com/) ran into problems, and now I'm looking for an alternative.

    Did you find a good answer to your question?

    Thanks,
    Jaro

    Too bad... I find it difficult to choose as it's hard to determine whether an application will live up to its promises (as always...)
