MailChimp
MailChimp offers a complete email marketing solution that is simple and inexpensive enough for small businesses but powerful enough for fairly large Internet merchants with multimillion annual sales. MailChimp has over 140,000 users. It manages lists containing over 500,000 million subscribers, and it delivers several million emails every day. MailChimp offers good reporting, easy integration with Google Analytics, and an Inbox Inspector that lets users test an email campaign in dozens of email clients, mobile clients, and spam filters before it is sent out. The platform is stable, consistent, and reliable.

Unlimited Monthly Plan
Send unlimited emails and pay based on the total number of subscribers you manage across all lists. You'll save money, and MailChimp conveniently bill your credit card every month. As your subscriber list grows or shrinks, MailChimp automatically move you up or down the different plans. |

Pay As You Go Plan
Pay only when you actually send a campaign. Pre-purchase a block of "Email Credits" that work like stamps. One credit is deducted from your account per individual email sent. Credits rollover from month to month, and don't expire. |

We switched to MailChimp after years of sending out our newsletters using our in-house system and a year working with some other newsletters management company. Our in-house system has nothing to compate with MailChimp. The "some other company" is good indeed, but MailChimp provides better features at more competitve pricing so we decided to jump.
MailChimp's campaign and list building tools are WYSIWYG totally. Its interface is very simple (I should have said here "it is made for monkeys"). The whole system leads you to succesful delivery of your newsletter.
Campaign stats are just awesome. You know how many subscribers opened, clicked links, voted to unsubscribe or pressed "it's a spam!" button and you know their e-mail addresses (can be exported into Excel in a click).
You do not need to remove unsubscribers, bouncers and abuse reporters from database imported into MailChimp because MailChimp marks such addresses automatically and you won't send them a new e-mail anymore.
MailChimp won't let you to do something that can be considered as sending spam. It's absolutely CAN-SPAM act compliant and it makes you to follow anti-spam law requirements.
The only negative I can tell about MailChimp is that it doesn't let you import so called "role-based" e-mails (e.g. sales@ , info@ , admin@ , etc). If you have a database of such e-mails collected earlier you'll have to enter them manually one by one into MailChimp. It's not a problem if we talk about couple of tens of such e-mails, but what about several thousands if you are sending newsletters for a large company? Adding them manually is a real monkey job.
