Hi guys

I am looking for a program/script that will allow me to send email to a group of people but with a personal touch, i.e. to announce everyone with their own name.

I do not need a contact marketing thing, just a simple program as described above. Preferably open source and maybe you could recommend 1-2 that run from a pc and not installed in a server.

Could you have your input in here?

Thank you

You may get tons of suggestions asking on the Warrior Forum (www.warriorforum.com) where all internet marketers hangs out ;)

I don't know anything that runs off your PC, but how many people do you have on your lists?

Why do you need it to run off of your own computer?

Also, your ISP might be blocking port 25 which would not allow you to send emails.

*If* your list is not so big, a PHP email script could do the trick (but that has to be hosted on a server).

I have about 200-300 but I am sure they grow easy easy. I just want to send an email time to time to them without having to do it one by one, but to personalise it for each of them.

I was just thinking to keep my server clean:-). Btw, are these kind of scripts resources hungry?

I have to look into this port 25, but what happens when you send emails by google, yahoo etc.? I am not gonna send a lot of emails often, maybe once a month...

Thank you
