Melon's Post Office - free newsletter service

Melons Post Office

                 

  Iv been operating my newsletter for the past few years and in that time I've never really found a satisfactory newsletter sending system thats easy for me to use and that I could also recommend to other web crafters. The system Iv been using has been complicated, flawed and prone to get me banned by my e-mail provider since it breaks their TOS..

Well that all changes today, because I'v scraped together a brand new newsletter service, and you can use it too! It handles mailing list signups, verification codes, unsubscriptions and e-mail formatting, and bulk sending, all from a hopefully pleasing UI.

It also supports everyone site templates that you can create over here! 

To get started making a newsletter just visit letters.melonland.net (it will auto login with your forum account).



Notes:

This service is in super-hyper-testing phase, there may be bugs and issues, please report them ASAP if you find them. I would also really welcome feedback, suggestions and opinions about the service as a whole!

Most main features are listed on the site homepage. 

Here are some extra bullet points of details you might need to know:

• All newsletters are sent from "letters@melonland.net", with a Reply To: of your forum e-mail.
• Your subject is prefixed with your name to keep them identifiable e.g. "[melon] Newsletter Issue 01"
• Some features are donator-only (such as multiple mailing-lists) our forum-donator link is still very basic, so if you are not flagged as a donator here yet, send me a PM and we can sort it out! (Donators are anyone who as made a Ko-Fi donation/order or Gift Shop donation!)
• There is a 1 hour delay on all newsletter sending giving you time to cancel if you need!
• Signups are currently anonymous, meaning you cant see who follows your newsletter, this is by design but open for discussion!
• There is no in-built way to import or export your mailing-list atm, however if you'd like to have your current list imported or request an export of your list, PM me and we can discuss.

Thanks!

I look forward to hearing what people think

[Melooon]

is it for mailing lists too?

If you mean Downtime style mailing lists where people can chain reply, then nope; its just for newsletter mailing lists where one person sends a letter to many people who subscribe to their list.
