Drupal - Newsletters Question...

Posted by Suri.CMS on April 23, 2008 at 8:54pm

Hi All,

When I login to my account here (drupal.org), I can see Newsletters link where I can subscribe or unsubscribe to newsletter(s).

I need same feature for my website where I am planning to use Drupal 6 version.

So is this newsletter feature part of core version or is it any 3 rd party module ?

Please tell me where can I get more details about it.

Thanks in advance...

see Theme and modules on Drupal.org if you want to see what d.o. uses-- i believe this is from simplenews.

Also "lists" for the mailing lists.

I agree with above

Simplenews is the way to go if you need basic newsletter functions, you can have separate newsletters for different topics that can then manage totally separate mailing lists. Only problem you will run into is managing your lists, the unsubscribe works fine, but it does not manage bounces, meaning it is not like a system similar to PHPList that will automatically remove your bounced addresses.
