Hi...

I'm setting up a website that will send out a newsletter to my website
subscribers.

What are my options for collecting/storing the email addreses and what
are my options for sending out a newsletter?

A few years ago I used what I think was called a LIST-SERV - not
sure...would that work and/or is there something better.

Any tutorials out there?

Thanks.

You have quite a few options. None of them are written in HTML, however,
so you might try posting your question in a more appropriate group. Not
only is it more polite, you'll get better answers.

Depending on what you have available, the only thing I would worry about is
someone trying to break in and grab all those addresses, so if possible,
keep them on another server.

Adrienne thanks for the advice...

It's not something that I was even thinking about...

Do you have an online resource or book that you can suggest on how to
do that?

Thanks...

No, not right now, as it's something I'm going to have to worry about
myself very soon. If I find anything interesting, I'll post it. One thing
you might want to Google for, however, is SQL Injection. There are tips to
prevent it.
