We have some small lists of our current customers, and some we have purchased that we want to be able to send information to. Would like this to be robust enough software to scale up well, but don't ever see it just sending spam to everyone.
I would like to integrate it into my current php/mysql/apache setup so it always does the emailing job--but i am not even sure if that makes sense. I am just hitting a pop account now. If there were some email software that uses mySQL for instance that would be a plus.
Basically i want to have a way of managing lists, sending them a newsletter or a "mailmerge" type email and have it plug away working until its done. I just got mandrake linux running so it would be nice to be able to put it on that. If it's windows i am going to avoid it, i've had too many problems lately with our windows servers.
I know i could do this in php, but i think that is not a very efficient way of doing it long term and i want something that works as a process, and not in a web browser.
Where should i go to learn more about my choices. i am pretty new to whole email thing. What works for you. What issues am i not thinking about.
