I love the Newsletter module. I find it much simplier and more feature complete than simplenews. One issue, I am trying to figure out how to get a list of the newletters I have sent in the past. I can't seem to see them. Their must be nodes created right? I have tried to use views to grab them, but no luck.

Anyone have any thoughts?

hello this is work in progress.
I believe you could use a view to achieve this..Just select show: Newsletter instead of content when creating the view..
I am preparing a default view for this, won't be ready until next version, sorry

No worries. I did what you suggested but I still can't get to the original newsletter body.

I am somewhat sure that it isn't getting saved. I don't see any of the newsletters in the Node table, and in the newsletter_newsletter table, there isn't anyplace for the body.

:-(

Sorry Just looked at the latest version. Still doesn't seem like I can get the message body from sent newsletters into a view. Perhaps I am not using the right tool, but I have to imagine that all people using a newsletter would have the same problem. I am trying to use the tool to send out press releases. Obviously, after they are sent, I want them archived on the site for future retrieval. I can't do this because the newsletter_newsletter table is not storing the body of the message that was sent. Sure, there is a link to the body of the template that was used, but that is pretty much useless.

Am I making sense?

First of all do you use latest dev?
If yes, then the mail is stored in the field field_newsletter_body and not in the newsletter_newsletter table:)
