Karen,

Do you also want to sell your products online? That is, would you have a use 
for a shopping cart on your website? I can heartily recommend 
1ShoppingCart.com. You can maintain multiple lists, send individual or group 
emails, create almost unlimited autoresponders, create coupons, and sell 
your products all with one relatively small fee each month ($79).

To your success,

Subject: [epub] recommendations?


I currently have a mailing list for people who attend our craft shows...
basically I just email them to let them know the time/place etc.  Right
now I'm sending them out in batches of 25 since my ISP doesn't like
anything larger than that.  Needless to say it's getting extremely unwieldy.

I need to update!  I want to start a monthly newsletter also.  I thought
about yahoogroups since of course it's free.  But I hate the idea of
sending those ads that yahoo sticks in, since I don't know what they'll
be... might upset some readers.

On the other end of the spectrum, my web hosting service offers Lyris,
but that's $50 a month.

I would like to be able to enter emails in one place, and then have
several lists.  For example, one list would be to announce shows in area
A, one list for shows in area B, and one list for a general newsletter.
A person could be on one, two, or all three lists.  The newsletter list
might contain several thousand names.  I would not need to send html emails.

Does anyone have any recommendations for me, about a list service?
