Our site is still using ProvB, which i bought some time ago. It does allow you to select a number of threads from each forum. The member can unsubscribe in his profile options which is good. However, the interface isn't very sophisticated. You have to create your own header and message in HTML. Occasionally, it crashes the database. You can't schedule when it goes out, you have to sit there and run it page by page. ?

A good program should pull the header from the site, so that the newsletter has the look and feel of the forum. it should have an editing section where you can edit the message as you desire before it gets sent out. it should work on cron to allow you to schedule the newsletter in advance.

The Greek gu.y had a mod. it worked once, then died. He was very excitable and gave it to Ozzy.

We really need a good one. We get huge traffic when we send one out. I wouldn't hesitate to pay for something good.
