My mom asked me to send an e-mail to people who previously stayed at her guesthouse in Brasil (just over 200 e-mails) - an invitation to the local town's annual celebration of Jesus starting next week.

Yahoo wasn't too happy with me - they prevented the email from going out. So I tried with a Google account and got shut down.

Can any of you recommend an e-mail system which will allow me to send out this massive, friendly, Bcc invitation? I was hoping to get some kind of periodical marketing newsletter going for her...

Note: I don't have my own hosted site.

Merci in advance!

I can only find this: http://www.emailaddressmanager.com/tips/email-address-limit.html

'Gmail email send limit - no more than 500 recipients per message for the Gmail web interface, or max 100 recipients if you are using an email client software.'

I think you should pop around and invite them all personally.

No, hang on a minute, I can see the flaw in this plan. Yes, it starts next week, there just won't be time...

Try using Constant Contact. She can then stay in contact with them on as regular basis as she wishes.http://www.constantcontact.com/index.jsp

It's free to try. I am not sure if it is worth the cost in the long-term.
