Email Newsletter script

[update]

Hello all!
Does anybody know about a program / script for
a. setting up cool newsletters and
b. sending them to 40.000+ recipients
(besides the built-in newsletter functionality of phpwcms? I don't want to mix it into the existing db...)
Possible problems arising: Integration into phpwcms for opt-in / opt-out and letter history perhaps.

Perhaps somebody has been dealing with this before. Any hint appreciated

I have just integrated phplist (new development version, 2.11.6) and integrated it into the frontenduser-administration.
Infos: http://www.phplist.com.

There where some modifikations by me necessary, but i tink, it's a good solution.

Integrated means, you can administrate the letters also by the frontenduser-profils.
Normal way is to use a registration form which can be integrated by iframe (eventually by a other way?)

regards,
Ralf

Hey Ralf,
this sounds promising. I've had a look at phplist right before - should be able to do the job.
Perhaps you'd like to introduce your fixes to me you've made so far?

Hrmpf .. worked with the phplist on dedi -means no problems with hoster - only 600 adresses, imported. My one (1 year ago) screwed itself into nowhere, only guessing who was sent and who was not.

In this case pro script might be saving lots of time. Or even Mailman could do this !

[update]

Hmmmm...
what I'd like to see:
- submit request for mail letter, placed onto phpwcms page(s)
- double opt-in
- opt-out on every mail sent
- templates
- extra admin interface

...perhaps it's been gettting better all the time?

listmessenger seems to be good too.
Would be some task though to integrate one of these into phpwcms (without iframe)

(without iframe)

Just at this moment wanted to suggest

coming soon but in german (hope this doesn't matter, but it's to strong for me to translate it - perhapst someone of you can do this better).

Some more infos ...
Ist was a quick and dirty solution - but maybe it's a good point to start and make it better.
I will try to find the time to give necessary explantatons and filex.

so long.
