picture_14For a long long time I've been sending out email newsletters - for both personal projects as well as clients.  A few years back it became worth spending the time to code elegant html-formatted newsletters because most people had formatted-email reading ability offered through gmail/hotmail/etc or their local email client applications.

There are tons of issues to concern yourself with when considering how to send an html newsletter via email and the biggest issue I've found is that when using 3rd party senders like Groundspring , the sent from and reply to addresses are usually different - especially when you have email click-through stats enabled (so that the clicks can be traced through the 3rd party sending domain).

Well, I just noticed that sometime in the past year Campaign Monitor has solved this riddle by adding SMTP authentication - so you can use your own domain to send email through! Nice...

It's one of the best e-mailing services out there. It's only missing one thing, CSV export.
nice
