Default Email list / campaign management software?

Hi All

I am capturing email addresses into different lists from different sites.

I want to set-up a number of standard emails for each site, and have them sent out to the email list in order, maybe weekly or monthly.

So, eg : I type up 10 emails for site A and call them a "monthly tips email", or whatever.

If someone signs up today, they get email 1 today, and email 2 in a month's time.

I'd like the software to take care of all this, and also include links that enable me to add ids to them, or some other way of me being able to track conversions on my site.

I'm sure there must be plenty of services available. Anyone recommend one?

AWeber is the only way to roll - you'll never look back. Go get an account.

No experience with it, but the blogs I read with mailing lists all use Aweber. I've also heard really good things about Constant Contact for ecommerce.

Aweber if you're able to pay and want something really transparent.

I've had some success with www.freeautobot.com if you don't want to pay. Does all the basic stuff you're after. Great for trials of this sort of thing, i used it to garner interest on my site and collect email addresses from visitors, but they have the ability to setup delayed sending like you described.

Aweber is good if your list is clean. They are known to be email Nazis, so if you get x% bounced, they will ban you from sending. The secret is to send in very small groups. If you have lists containing hundreds of email addresses, and you try to send all at one time, you will have issues.
