Subject: [Nfb-web] looking for web based way to email newsletter

 

Hi all,

I have some experience with websites. However it has been some time since I
have administered one. I have had two different groups ask me for advice on
how they can email there membership a newsletter on a periodic or weekly
bases. They both would like to use their website to send the newsletter if
they can. Group 1  has a wordpress website. Group 2 uses HTML 5 / Php. Both
groups want to send the emails to a list of undisclosed recipients. Also
each group have 100+ members. I am still trying to do some of my own
research, but I am not getting many solutions that work. The only
reoccurring suggestion is to use the BCC field. Wordpress solutions indicate
to use a plugin, but I hear there are some security issues with some, so I
do not know which to choose. One group have multiple people on staff that
might have a need to send a newsletter from the wordpress site, but do not
have the wordpress admin access. I am not sure if the plugins require that
sort of level of access to use it.

 

Any suggestions or pointers in a direction to look would be most
appreciative. Thank you.
