Newsletter format

[Basment Dweller]

You're asking for the holy grail.

Was just thinking this, it's not easy as cut and paste.

There is a way to do this using outlook involving a mail merge with a word doc and excel spreadsheet and then emailing the merge.

Basically you setup your newsletter in ms word using one of their predetermined templates, setup your mailing list and substitution fields in excell and 'merge and send' the email from within ms word.


Here is the tutorial on how to do it

This process is quite tricky.

From how I understand - the newsletter is sent from Mail Chimp directly, which is not what I want.

So what if it's sent from Mail Chimp? the recipient doesn't know what mail client you used to send the email.

Yes, it gets sent from the MailChimp server, but you can specify what people see in their "From" box and what email address is used for replies.

I am not looking for an e mail application - I am looking for a newsletter application.

Your original brief was:

Can anyone please recommend a good newsletter format that you can design a newsletter on with pics etc to use that you would then send via e mail to our clients. It must be in the e mail, not as an attachment.

Then you later go on to say:

I am not looking for an e mail application - I am looking for a newsletter application.

Your requirements are contradictory and vague.

As suggested

Mail Chimp does this.

MS word Mail merge with outlook does this.

Can you elaborate on the problem and let us rather suggest the solution?
