3. Setup Newsletter

Take a look here (choose "Preferences" under the application menu):



- Single message, multiple BCC

If you don't check this checkbox, NewsLetter will create a new message for every recipient of your list. This means that you can send a custom message for each recipient, which will own a singular subject, body and attachment.

If you check this checkbox, NewsLetter will create a single message whose recipient will be you and whose BCC (blind carbon copy) recipients will be all the members of you recipient list.

If you use this option, you can't "customize" the subject and body of messages (eg, you will use "Dear recipient" instead of "Dear Jean-Carlo").

Use this option if:
   • You don't need a custom subject or body for your message.
   • You will attach a "big" file (eg, 4 MB) for lots of recipients (eg, 200).


- From

The recipient/s of your message will see this email address as the return-path (or sender) of the message. This is a required field.


- SMTP server

This is your smtp provider. The server which will deliver your messages. You can use your own ISP service (eg, "smtp.mac.com" or "smtp.mail.yahoo.com") or even use your own smpt server (then, you must enable your built-in copy of "sendmail" if you know-how, and use "localhost" for this setting).

If you don't know what is your SMTP server, take a look to your regular email account in your mail client (eg, Apple's Mail or Microsoft's Entourage).


- Requires authentication

If you must login into your smtp server with a login/password (most of smtp servers will require it), check this box and enter the required info.


- User

Enter here, if needed, your user name (login) for your smtp server. If you are confused, take a look to the configuration of your email client.


- Password

Enter here, if needed, your password for your smtp server. If you are confused, take a look to the configuration of your email client.
