Email Distribution List Software

Asked by hennanra3 in List Server Software, Email Clients, Firefox Web Browser

Hello,

I am interested in setting up a distribution list as I have a large number of users for my website (including emails).   However, I am a bit confused about a few issues.

I understand that to set up bulk email distribution email lists also requires the use of an smtp server.  I already have an email account with my web host which includes pop3 and smtp settings, can I not use these same settings in any software to send out bulk emails.  As a general point, I am looking at about 1000 to 2000 users so it isn't huge by bulk email standards.   I have noticed many services charging very large sums to allow you to send bulk emails - I didn't understand the purpose of using this unless hosts put some limits on using their servers?

Secondly, I have not been able to locate reliable software using Google searches.  I would appreciate if someone could recommend a range of the most popular email distribution software.  Ease of use and administering users is a key factor for me.

Kind Regards,
