I highly recommend PC iMail for sending newsletters, because it will let you insert each person's name in each newsletter (mail merge) and will also let you set time delays in between each email that it sends.
ISPs limit the number of messages you can send at the same time, so setting a time delay spreads the delivery out over a longer period of time – and keeps your account from getting closed for spamming.
I also like PC iMail's ability to import email addresses from Outlook.
Is it a real newsletter, where the issue you send out on a certain date goes out only on that date, or a series of letters which go out starting at the date they sign up, starting with number one (which may have been created months or years ago) and going through the full series? Both get called newsletters, which is why I ask.
A genuine newsletter can be sent out with a mailling list manager, and there are lots of free scripts to do this job, though they aren't all the easiest things to install and set up.
Alternatively, for either type, you can use an autoresponder, though if it is a "real" newsletter you would use only the broadcast facility, and the sort that is really a series of connected emails would use the normal autoresponder system. Autoresponders are generally a lot easier to use than maillist scripts.
Aweber is the most established autoresponder, but it is a paid for service. On the plus side, it is well recognised which means your newsletters are less likely to be deleted unseen as spam. You can get more details here: http://www. okget. info/iz/aweber and they also do a free test drive.
