Description
Integration with civicrm data would make this a very powerful solution. civicrm has a civimail module that can connect via smtp to a 3rd party, but working with mailchimp would be a much cleaner solution. You might want to mention to civicrm guys and they can collaborate.
just a thought.

Second.
I have still to find a clean WYSIWYG solution for Civimail that would allow nontechs to create emails. Unless such an option is created soon, integration with MailChimp would be ideal.

Good idea, I'll send a heads up to them.

This thread seems to have lost any interest. I would like to reinvigorate this thread. I have been using CiviCRM to manage the membership of a rugby union club for almost twelve months and coupled with Drupal it is an excellent solution. However the CiviMail module is not that simple to use when it comes to sending HTML email. It is cumbersome and lacks features.
I agree that an integration with Mailchimp (or similar) would provide a very good solution for small to medium sized lists. Unfrotunately I am not a programmer so can only express a desire that it happen rather than being able to offer assistance.

I would also like to see MailChimp integrated with civiCRM. I have an existing email list at MailChimp, and I would like to start using the features of an open source CRM solution.
Like the user mfuggle above, I am not a programmer either, so unfortunately I won't be able to help, I'll just wait eagerly.
