Hi All

Been looking at mailing list managers, and, while many have lots of great features, it seems that most cannot handle monster-sized email lists.

Would anyone know of a system that can handle lists of 100,000+ email addresses?

Many thanks

What kind of server would it be running on?

Won't majordomo be able to do this?

Have you looked at IPSwitch's IMail product?

In addition to this nice package, they have a decent server-based Anti-Virus check package for checking incoming and outgoing mail for viruses.

Hi,

Are you looking at announcement lists, or actual mailing lists? For actual mailing lists, use qmail and ezmlm. If you just need announcement software, we might have something for you. =) Drop me an email.

In any case though, you do need a good server to handle high volume mailing lists, and also a decent mail server (qmail or postfix).

Cheers,

Alex

Thanks, everyone.

I should have thought of the difference. It would be a Newsletter system that we're looking for, not a Majordomo type of thing. Here are a few features that would be nice:

- personalization (dear %%name%%, your email is %%email%%, today's date is %%date%%)

- multiple newsletter subscribe/unsubscribe

- email validation of subscribe and unsubscribe (admin optional)

- headers/footers

- templates would be great

- bounce capability

----------

Linux server. What I thought might be good is to use a separate server (if the list gets big enough) to send out the newsletters.

----------

Here are a few examples of what I mean. These systems have lots of nice features, but I don't think that they can handle so big a list as I've mentioned (or even bigger). That's why we're looking for a more robust system.

BigSender 3. It looks really good. This might be the one to beat:

Alex, is this the kind of thing you're referring to?

Many thanks, All

I think IMail would be one product to look at for your needs.

I'm beta testing the GT product that Alex is refering to (I think). It sounds like just what you need...that's why I got it too! As far as capasity, it should be able to handle it (SQL db back end) with good GT code, bounce management, email validation, etc.....but mine use is much smaller, but it sounds more like a server thing than the list script.

Sounds interesting, Dave. Thanks. Let us know how the beta testing goes
