Hi,

As Microsoft Lisbuilder is now being retired:
http://www.microsoft.com/smallbusin...transition.mspx

can anyone recommend a good replacement for a mailing list with about
60,000 addresses on it.

The ones I've been looking at are around $500 a month!

Good starting points:
http://www.bravenet.com/webtools/elist/
http://www.coollist.com/

Both free. I don't know about the overall quality of these, though.

That's a lot of emails. Do they handle that many?

We've been using <URL: http://constantcontact.com /> for our clients.

I see it's $150/month for 25,000 and call for more.

Thanks - thats even what MS are saying! See below.

Hey there

I'm CEO of VerticalResponse. You can try us for free, no credit card required. For 60k addresses if you bought in bulk we'd come off of our published pricing. Email me at janine@verticalresponse.com.

Cheers!
