Php Newsletter script
in [General]

From: David Mehler on 27 Sep 2010 15:25 Hello, I'm wondering if anyone could recommend a newsletter script they use and like? Some requirements I have are: 1. Free preferred 2. Can be used via a web browser 3. Can put the newsletter submission on a web page 4. Can use rss to feed that web page 5. Produce Xhtml compliant code and integrate well with a site's existing css 6. can optionally send that newsletter out as plain text or html Googling has not helped in this matter. Thanks. Dave.

When creating html emails you have to step back a half dozen years for outlook, which is the current dominant client because of offices. Essentially, its back to basics, with tables for layout, font tags, and little, if any, css. Images for layout are also hit and miss because of spam protection. If you can't create a template yourself, you're best off looking for one online that can be used in an email marketing system.

I send around 200 emails a day to our clients. The message is a bill laid out to allow the recipient to enter some additional details and then forward it to their client. The images are a combination of company logo and of photos of work we've undertaken. The work I had to do to make it work for Outlook was as described (HTML Tables with limited CSS). It works nicely in Outlook 2003+, Thunderbird, Outlook Express. For those with a problem, I have a link to the online version. I use PHPGuru's RMail (similar to PHPMailer). But hit and miss would certainly be how I'd describe getting it working for Outlook 2007. -- Richard Quadling Twitter : EE : Zend @RQuadling : e-e.com/M_248814.html : bit.ly/9O8vFY
