November 2006

DotNetNuke has the built in facility to send newsletter emails to the registered users on your DotNetNuke portal.

You can create your own HTML or Plain Text emails and select which users to send the email to. Messages can be personalized with the users’ details, and you also have the option to attach files to the emails.

Alongside this, the administrator receives a confirmation email that the newsletter messages have been sent.

This video tutorial demonstrates how to use and configure the Newsletters module in DotNetNuke.
