RE: Bulk mail services?
Ben, In a nutshell that is what their tech support said.

Bulk mail services?
Hello and Happy New Year! I'm looking for any feedback anyone has on bulk email services they have used. I'm googling for candidates, but it'd be nice to narrow the playing field a bit with real life experiences. Anyone? TIA ~ Ninja Email Security with Cloudmark Spam Engine Gets Image Spam ~ ~ http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Ninja~

Constant Contact usually gets the highest vote count when this question is asked. Our company chose to go with Exact Target and has been satisfied.

RE: Bulk mail services?
A little side note about constant contact. We use ISA 2004 as our proxy here and we can only have one person logged into CC at a time (even with separate CC accounts). The session somehow gets screwed up and one persons session will log out the other persons session. I have spoke to CC and they claim there is not a work around for this. I personally think that is crap but what do I know. We have 4 separate CC accounts and each person has to schedule a time slot to work with CC. Pain in the butt.

Re: Bulk mail services?
I doubt this is CC's fault. If they allow you to send directly to their SMTP servers, ISA is probably taking too long to drop the connection. --Durf On Wed, Dec 31, 2008 at 9:03 AM, Eric Wittersheim ewittersh...@aasmnet.orgwrote: A little side note about constant contact.
