Bulk email

I am trying to put graphics and links in my email much like one would see in a newsletter from ITUNES or a bank. Do I need special software or do current email software programs like Netscape, IE or Safari do the job? I believe style sheets and HTML are involved. Am I close?
I am looking a more sophiscated email. I am looking for an email with a background color, graphics and the ability to hyperlink web pages within the missive. I am looking to create my own emails rather than forwarding or attaching a graphic. I want to embed the graphic and hypertext in the missive (email)

Hello All I am trying to figure out how to link an name and email box on my web page to an auto responder. I am using Actual Drawing for my HTML editor. I am using C Panel for my auto responder. All answers are greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I am trying to add a form to my website that allows people to sign up for a mailing list. I then need this data to be downloadable and available to me in a spreadsheet so I can convert into labels. Are there any software/freeware programs that will do this for me? I want the end product to be downloaded into Excel if possible? Thanks in advance.

I’m looking for a free software or web site that will let me create a newsletter where I can easily add or delete recipients email addresses and the newsletter is sent in HTML format. Something simple, but easy to use. Preferably with design and send features, but I could create it myself in HTML if I had to.

Do not say use MS publisher and email it with outlook - that is NOT what I am looking for.

Any sites or software you know of?
Aweber looks good, but it’s not free. I’m not having many users at this stage, so it’s not worth the cost yet.

Keep answers coming if you have them please.
None of these are what I am looking for.
I found http://www.phplist.com/

Looks like this will work. Thanks for your posts anyway.
MailChimp looks good too. Thanks for that - I’m setting up PHPlists now, but they do not have much in the way of templates to use. MailChimp appears to have that.

I want to have a members only area of my site and only give access to people that subscribe to my newsletter. I can do this easily enough by protecting the directory and adding users manually to it, bit I’d like to find a way to add the user and assign the password automatically and generate at email back to the users email telling them their login info. Is there a 3rd party tool that can accomplish this? So I want a user to fill out a web form, have that automatically add them to my mailing list as well as give them access to my members only directory, and generate an email back to them with the login credentials. Of course, I would want them removed if they opt out.

My newsletter management software can’t do this, and I haven’t found one that can.

I want a user to be able to visit my website & send emails to any email address from a dialog box on the page. How do I do this?

I need to setup a mailing list for myself and others. I have a Linux server. I would prefer not to have to spend a few day learning something but if that is needed, so be it. I’m open to all option such as 3rd party solutions.

I have a few companies and would like to create newsletters for all of them. I want to know if there is a program or software where I could imput all of my email addresses, and when I create a newletter, just select the email addresses that I would like the newsletter or whatever materials to be sent to.
Thankx for any feedback on this

What is the best way to send bulk email newsletters directly to the users inbox? I Mean which way is the best which is not blocked by ISPs.
