i am testing out the dev version for 6.1 and while looking in the documentation to see how to have new users subscribed by default to certain newsletters, i saw this issue in the queue for 5.1 http://drupal.org/node/178485

I think creating this feature request is the way to ask for the same functionality in the 6.1 version of simplenews. (if not, please let me know.)

thanks so much for this great module.

more information:
i'm thinking of situations where there are 2 (or more different types of newsletters)
and when users are requesting new accounts they get subscribed to newlettertype1 by default
and they dont get subscribed to newslettertype2

Automatic subscription is available in 6.x-1.x-dev already, but you have to build it yourselves. Using the trigger and actions you can subscribe a new user to a newsletter and unsubscribe upon deletion. I have not tested but have build it with this request in mind. Please let us know your results.

The subscription by choice (of the user) can not be build with triggers. This requires additional code.
