I'm trying to email out my own newsletter, and I have around 200 subscribers to mail it out to. My newsletters comply with the CAN-SPAM Act of 2003, containing an unsubscribe link and a physical business address.
I'm looking for a service that will be able to send out that many emails. I'm not looking for an email management service, which would keep track of the newsletter subscribers, since I do that myself. Also those types of services will automatically add unsubscribe links and whatnot. Since my newsletter format already includes that, I don't want software to automatically do that.
Any suggestions?
Hi Greg,
For simple versions of this kind of thing I generally use Sparklit. Maybe it would suit you?

Is there a reason you don't just send the emails yourself? I mean at work I typically send about 4000 emails per week and basically all I need is a program that can send emails and an email server that accepts connections from our internet connection (typically the ISPs own outgoing mail server).
Personally, I am a fan of RSS.
Isn't that more convenient?

Most email servers have limits for emails per hour. I would have to make a script to split it up into 50 emails per hour, since I wouldn't be able to send them all at the same time.

I am, too, but many people haven't caught on to RSS feeds yet.
I just googled and found a bunch of RSS to Email services... then your subscribers can choose one or the other.

I just checked our ISPs limits and you are right. The email server for consumer clients does have a limit per hour. Only the server for business clients has no limits.
