Well, I do not totally agree about collective.mailchimp as a valid
alternative to collective.ProductsEasyNewsletter.
Yes, MailChimp is the sate of the art regarding newsletters management
and clearly open source community is lacking such good product.
But it does not feet the needs of most of my customers:
* You have to pay to use it when having large amount of recipients
And one problem with open source is that people like the idea to be
used not to pay for software
So, most of my customers refuse to use mailchimp for that point.
* When Plone is used inside a company for intra/extranet, having
confidential information exported to external web site simply does
not do the trick
Actually, EasyNewsletter is working quite fine for these customers and I
do not have any other valid open source alternative to suggest.
But, I agree that newsletters should be made outside Plone using
services like mailchimp and others.
So I would like we keep EasyNewsletter until a good newsletter open
source software is borned.
Best regards,
Gaël,
