vBMail: What is it?
vBMail is a professional mailing list mod with Bounced Mail handling and advanced subscription management features.

Uses

vBMail is the perfect solution for any forum who wish to send out large quantities of mail to users on a mailing list. It lets admins and users have fine-grained access to subscriptions, and also automatically handles bounced mail.

Major Features:

Bounced Mail Handling: Once configured, it will (if so desired) automatically track and handle bounced mail. Alternatively, you can manually handle bounced mail if you so wish.

Automatic "Unsubscribe" Link Creation: If the user receiving the mail has access to unsubscribing, a secure link to unsubscribe themselves from the mailing list will be automatically added to the bottom of the mail. It does not require the user to be logged in, so it complies with spam policies set forth by mail providers.

Mail History: Each past sent mail can be viewed at any time from the front-end.

Advanced Subscription Management: Users can quickly and easily (un)subscribe from the mailing list via the mailing list directory, or the admin can manually change the subscription status in the AdminCP.

Bounced Mail Threshold: When an admin-configured number of mails bounce from the same email address, the user is automatically removed from mailing lists and all other email-related vBulletin features, and notified via PM what happened to their account, as well as directions to change their email addresses.

If, when you create a new list and tick the "default subscribed" box for the select usergroups, they do not show up in the Subscribed Users list, then please PM me with an FTP and AdminCP account so I can look into this on-site.

After clicking "Add New List", I don't see any box to check for "default subscribed". Where is this? This is all I see:

Edit: I found it. You setup the mailing list, then edit it, and check the box under the "default subscribed" column. Then you can see all the users are subscribed.

A question questions:
1) Where do you actually setup and send emails? I don't see any place to create an email.
2) hat is the point of the Manage Keywords section?

Thanks for your time.

Do you have information about the max number of subscribers who can be emailed? I have a mailing list of about 4000 users and I got a 500 error after it seemingly timed out. I was able to send test messages without issue.

Does this mod work for everyone else?
I still can't seem to figure out how to get existing members subscribed to my send list. I was hoping to send out a newsletter soon, but I need it to go to all my members in hopes to draw them back to the site.

I've tried every option I see, I just want to know if this is happening to everyone or just me.

Question on HTML emails.

1. Are you supposed to paste the HTML directly into the editor? The reason I ask is, if I do this, email clients appear to display the emails for the most part OK. But if a user goes to the forum and clicks on the archive, all they see is HTML.

2. somewhere in this thread, I saw that you are supposed to put the doctype within the <body> is that correct?

This might be a really stupid question, but how can I send mail using this?

Can you please explain why is this in Addons sections of your OP: Poor Man's Bounced Email Handler

Is it really necessary, I had a feeling your solution was complete. What is it missing that you advise people to install that 2nd mod as well? Please let me know because I am considering buying your PRO version to support your development.
