it looks as though you have created the newsletter user with plain text password.
mysql will compare the user password against the encrypted password and will fail.
you can do this:
mysql> set password for newsletter@localhost=PASSWORD("testPass");
or
mysql> update user Set Password=Password("testPass")
-> where user="newsletter";
Also see page 393 of the "mysql Reference Manual"

Yes.
See Chapter 4.3.5 of the mysql manual.
"Note that we must issue GRANT statements for both monty@localhost and
monty@"%".
