e-Campaign is easy-to-use mailing list software. This
tutorial is intended to quickly familiarize you with e-Campaign. You can get
started using this software in 4 steps.
Step 1: Setting up an Email
Account
Click menu “Tools->Email
Accounts” or the button 
to create an Email
Account to send emails.
If you have SMTP email accounts configured in other email
software (eg.Microsoft Outlook, Outlook Express, Mozilla Thunderbird, and
Eudora), click the “Import” button to import an Email Account.
Otherwise, click the “New” button to create an email account
from scratch.
In the “Delivery Method” field, select SMTP, and enter the
SMTP Server hostname, username, and password.
Other delivery methods include “Direct Sending”, Microsoft
Exchange Server, Microsoft IIS SMTP Pickup Folder. Refer to the “Configuring
e-Campaign Section” in the Help documentation for more detailed information about these delivery methods. (In e-Campaign, press F1 to view the Help documentation.)
Step 2: Creating a mailing
list
You can create/edit your mailing list file using any
plain-text editor, such as Window Notepad. Save the mailing list file with a
.txt file extension (eg. list1.txt)
A simple (one-column) mailing list looks like this:
Email
mike@xxx.com
tom@yyy.com
kate@zzz.com
A two-column mailing list file looks like this:
Email, Name
mike@xxx.com, Mike
tom@yyy.com, Tom
kate@zzz.com, Kate
You can also use Microsoft Access or Microsoft Excel files as
your mailing lists. Please refer to the “Creating Mailing List & Working
with Databases” section for further details.

Mailing Job” or the button
