After recieving the Hexus.net newsletter I thought it would be a good idea to start my own newsletter for my site. Are there any programs out there that let you easily create html or plain text emails ?

With the CMS I am using I can send out a mass email that is no problem, looks like I might just have to design a template.
Dadamail is quite a good one.
We do quite a few of these at work. A designer draws it in photoshop and them some mug like yours truly hacks out html by hand. We use a system called Lyris to send the messages and track opens and clickthroughs etc, with all the images on a normal web server to keep the mail itself lightweight.
Only caveat is use tables for all your layout, I know it's wrong normally, but email readers are notoriously diverse, and most (including outlook) fill their pants at the site of a <div> tag.
Btw Kes, Liked the Hexus mail a lot, much better than most of the pap our clients want.
They told me I was gullible ... and I believed them.
cheers for your help people, I will have a look at what you have said.
