This guide shows you how to use the Newsletter tool offered by Infomaniak to create and send newsletters, i.e., recurring messages to multiple recipients.

Why use Newsletter instead of an Email Service

A newsletter is a periodic communication tool sent by email to a specific group of subscribers. It generally aims to inform, share news, updates, or relevant content on a specific topic, and maintain a relationship with a targeted audience.

They can contain articles, announcements, promotions, links to recent content, upcoming events, and sometimes exclusive offers for subscribers. The main goal is to provide interesting and relevant content to engage and maintain the interest of subscribers.

Newsletter Infomaniak allows you to schedule and send newsletters to a list of email recipients who are waiting for your emails; you thus effectively and personally distribute email marketing campaigns and maintain regular and relevant communication with your clients and subscribers.

The features include creating templates, managing the subscriber list, analyzing performance, and all of this is not directly possible with a traditional Email Service. Moreover, the tool has its own interface, autonomous within your browser, completely separate from Mail Infomaniak and does not require a messaging application. This means that if you already have contacts to whom you wish to write with their consent, you will need to import them into the tool first.

Prerequisites

• Have a domain name on which you will activate the Newsletter:
  • Access to your DNS zone if the domain name is not with Infomaniak.
  • Create a new domain name if necessary.
• Have Newsletter credits to allow sending (1 credit = 1 newsletter sent to 1 subscriber).
