We use Aweber. Lots of tools for putting together nice looking emails. Lots of segmenting capability. Lots of stats.
The only knock is that sometimes they can have difficulty sending the confirmation opt in email to yahoo, hotmail, gmail. Not all the time, and I am sure that other email marketing companies have the same problem at times.
I wrote up “if you don’t get the confirmation, please follow these steps” instructions on my site. Happy to show you what I did if you want to see.
Bottom line, I am happy enough with Aweber that I am not currently shopping for a new email marketing solution, but I do have that nagging feeling of “wonder how many leads I’m losing because they never are able to opt in…”

Who uses email marketing companies like Aweber and which ones do you like? Or do you have your own custom script and server? I really would like a very lightweight (fast loading) solution for wordpress (with plugin) and the above company is all I could find. I really do not want to pay that much, and I also would have to test the plugin and find out it adds a .5 sec to load times. Anyone have experience or opinions regarding this for your friend muffincrumbs?
