Description
As a site admin i know not all of my clients are going to my site to subscribe for my newsletter.
Instead i want to be able to subscribe a user or users (en masse).
Is this possible with simple news.
Is this a part that is still under development, or am i missing something here?
Thanks

Hi! That's already implemented.
Users can be imported here:

thanx
Aaaargh I overlooked in the admin part and didn't give sufficient rights to newsletter admin.
In the system module i have to give acces for a site admin (not user #1) to the admin pages.
Is there a way to give only acces to the content admin pages. Which is needed for en masse subcription part you just pointed out?

Hi, I'm not sure about that.
The question is - can those users access the import page directly by entering the URL?
If that's the case you would just have to add a link to the "navigation" menu so that those users can get there.
Good luck

I created a new role "SN Administrator" and added a new user to the role "SN Admin User". I gave the new role all Simplenews permissions. Upon logging in as the new user I was able to access all functionality under /admin/settings/simplenews and /admin/content/simplenews.
I don't understand why these are in two separate places, the first appears on the Admin Menu /Administer/Site Configuration/Simplenews while the other is accessed using the Advanced Help system. Perhaps in the future all of the settings could be moved under the Administration Menu - this would be less confusing. I will create a new issue for this in the issue queue.
