Newsletter composing & sending software

A customer of mine wants to make a newsletter for their website. The
newsletter should be HTML with images and sent to a database of her
subscribers.
They would like a script where they can easily compose and send the
newsletter. I can write that, but wouldnt like to reinvent the weel.
Does anybody here have any good recomendations on newsletter
composing/sending software? Userfriendlines s and simplicity is the key.

TIA, Nis.

You may want to try this class for composing and send e-mail messages.
It has support for composing HTML messages with embedded images.

It also can work in an optimized way for bulk mailing using the
SetBulkMail() function.

It supports several different delivery methods (mail(), sendmail [or
exim, or postfix), qmail, smtp) so you can choose the one that is more
appropriate for you.

It can be used for sending personalized messages, optionally using
Smarty to define the message templates, or cache the message bodies for
optimizing the delivery of messages that do not change for different users.

All you need to do is to run the SQL query that extracts your user
details and iterate the delivery for each one. The class comes with
examples fo how to do that so you can adapt for using with your database:

Hello, I have programmed an application to manage newsletters in PHP. I send the mails using smtp, but when there are more than 500 subscribers and when the mails (in html) are too big, it is really slow. What can I do gain speed ? Thanks,

Hi, I'm developing a software to send newsletter to the users of my website. I have a problem on the stats, detecting the opening of the newsletter on the user's client.
