Not sure what you mean "daily restriction". Many platforms give you the option of single or double opt-in.

Steve,

Would love to help you out. Can you define "daily restriction"? Did you mean it in terms of volume send for a certain price? Or something else.

As Bill mentioned, most platforms do give you the option of choosing SOI or DOI.

Steve:

Another option is to host your own email solution like AutoResponse Plus. The cost for ARP last I checked was around $200 one time payment. You would have to take care of your own hosting and admin which can be easily outsourced. I'm sure the guys at ARP would help you out there as well.

Using a solution like ARP gives you no volume restrictions, and it's up to you to decide if you want subscribers to opt-in (which I highly advise!).

Thanks for your help.

The restrictions are with the number of emails I am able to send per day with my current web host.

Thanks Juicy

The real problem seems to be that my ISP limits the number of daily emails to 500. I therefore need software that can use a different ISP.

Thanks again

Hi,
Yes, In iKode Newsletter Server system you can set unlimited SMTP account such as Gmail, Hotmail, Aol, yahoo mail etc.
Thus you can send unlimited emails per day.
Hope it can help you!
Kind Regards!

Check out WWW.Swiftpage.com. They will limit your send volume at first because you are a new customer and they don't know your list. But then you can set your send at whatever send limit you want. No double optin. They offer a 60-day free trial.

From your additional information I am hearing that you 1) want an email solution you don't host on your own server(s) so you can avoid the daily send limit of your current ISP and 2) a solution that does not require double opt-in.

The good news is that there are likely 200+ solutions to choose from. The bad news is that there are likely 200+ solutions to choose from.

To more easily help you select I suggest checking out ClickMail Marketing's ESPinator - http://espinator.com - an online selection tool where you answer some questions around your requirements and you get 3 recommendations.

In my 10+ years of email marketing experience you really need to list out more detailed requirements such as how many emails you are sending monthly, what your objectives are, which features and functionality are necessary, etc. It's also a good idea to have a budget in mind.

The fact you are looking for something that doesn't require double opt-in makes me wonder if you are following CAN-SPAM and other anti-spam laws that might be applicable to you. It's proven that permission is the better way and double opt-in is the best type of permission. If you do not have any sort of permission from your email recipients you will likely run into problems with most of the email solutions available since they need to make sure their users are compliant. This is necessary to stay off black lists and to keep from having your emails blocked by webmail solutions, ISPs and corporate mail servers.

Maybe you can respond with more information or how you are proceeding.
