This newsletter extension gets the job done without much fuss, offering a simple submission form that can be edited to suit a given page's style. One of the nicest features of this product is its ability to precisely limit the number of newsletters and emails that are sent at regular intervals (per minute, per hour, and per day), so clients won't run into problems with their ISP or host. The extension supports newsletters in both HTML and plain format, which allows for most applications to work swiftly and smoothly. There's also the option to directly edit the content of the newspaper from an on-board admin panel, cutting down on desktop clutter and saving time. There's a few basic requirements, such as server PHP installation (though most people are unlikely to need to set this up manually) and a permissions modification, but nothing too esoteric. There's a limit of one newsletter system per domain with this extension, which may result in problems for some clients with lots of material, but a dynamic case like that probably calls for a more hands-on approach to coding anyway. For putting together quick, competent, and above all, user friendly newsletter systems, this extension is spot on and well worth its price.
