I just used this excellent plugin:
http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/newsletter/
On my friend’s website – David Kupelian.
It’s fantastic. Was really easy to install, basically just putting in the plugin directory and then a few configuration things in the wordpress control panel such as sender’s name etc.
Then all you have to do to create the form is use a wordpress short tag of ‘[newsletter]‘ in a blog post. There is a widget to include it on the side panel too.
The best feature is that you can create preset themes for the emails you’re sending out, which is greate to include a custom header and footer etc.
It has options to set the max bulk email sent at once which will prob help people who have limites on their server.
Just thought i’d share. Love it.
