Hi!
I'm using Drupal 6.2 and just have installed the Simplenews module.

It worked for me, but it's not very easy to find out how - even though it's so obvious...
Once you've installed and set up Simplemail, go to admin > site construction > blocks. There is now a block 'Newsletter' for each newsletter you created. You can add it anywhere on the site, and finetune it using the 'settings' option.
