Overview

The free (GPL) Letterman component adds simple bulk newsletter management features to a web site using the Joomla content management system. Letterman works well for single newsletter subscriptions with up to a few thousand subscribers. The subscriber limit is dependent on your server configuration and ISP rules.

 Advantages  Disadvantages
  1. Very easy to use
  2. Integrates well with existing Web content
  3. Simple signup form
  4. HTML and text formats
  5. Can import Joomla user records
  6. Newsletter contents is included in site search function
  7. Includes throttling to prevent triggering spam alerts
  1. Only supports one newsletter and one subscription list per site
  2. Limited documentation
  3. Poor unsubscribe security


Note:
If you need to send more than a few hundred newsletters per day, you should use a dedicated email service, such as Aweber. Through our affiliate relationship with Aweber we offer discounts on their services.
