I have read carefully your instructions and followed them. But NOWHERE do you say precisely how to send a newsletter. Is this supposed to be automatic, based on the queue date. Is there a drop-down somewhere that offers me a “Send” choice?

It may all seem obvious to you, but it is not obvious to me. I have newsletters in the queue. I want to send them. How do I do it?

Hey, I created a generic newsletter template and queued it up. How can I remove this form the Queue!?

Hi, I don’t know whether this is the right place to put up this question but I’ll be glad if someone can provide me a solution. I want to add a new field called ‘Name’ to the newsletter subscription block which originally has just one field of email. How can I achieve this?

Steve, I was also in the same position as u few weeks back. I suggest findinfg some decent looking templates on themeforesyt.com or even use some free html email tremplate. Just yahoo “email template sample” and u should be presented with many samples.

Download a suitable sample, get to its HTML version and copy and paste that into a new email template.

I apologize in advance for this most basic question: How do I create the newsletter itself? I have no problem with the sending, but I don’t know how to add photos or graphics or change fonts or put my company logo on the page or anything. I tried creating in word and copy/paste into the template. I know I need to know some code but I don’t know where I can find a sample. If I had a sample of one I could figure it out. Thanks in advance.

Good article Inchooers – using Magento to send out e-mail is ok if you have a few hundred e-mails or so. When you have a large mailing list, using magento will really tax your server and maybe even cause performance issues.

@zapalka,

Have a look at MailChimp ( http://mailchimp.com ), they have amazing integration with Magento.
