Not what you want to hear, but -even-if- 100% of those addresses are legitimately collected, opt-in, want to see your product addresses, it's still almost certain that you'll be immediately tagged as a spammer. Given what I've seen of email address lists offered, most of the entries are complete junk. > is mailman programmed in a way to avoid getting blocked by hotmail > and others?? or do u think it's better to buy another server and use > it for promotion? All mailman does is send email. There isn't much that the software can do to prevent hotmail/etc from blocking your mail. There are things that you can do, like whitelisting, but you need to research those on the postmaster web sites for said providers. Oh, and it's quite possible that your ISP could bounce you as a customer for violating their spamming policy. z! ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list [email protected] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org Security Policy: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq01.027.htp
