Email Question?

I have a web site that I am soon to manage and the client has an OPT IN email newsletter database.

Do you think its best to go with a third party host for this with a dedicated SMTP server or try and run batches from the regular host SMTP server? The have tried the later and have been getting about 40% bounced back email. I think its the server timing out.

The database is Access, the list contains about 8000 records. The email is sent twice a month.

get an Infacta Group mailer with the appropriate gateway for emailing yourself. However, the bounce backs could be because your domain has been identified as a spammer, or you have some bad emails. Some stale lists have a lot of bounces.

First, get a free or inexpensive email verifying program, and try a batch.

You can also get some reasonable email hosts who also have fresh leads that don't charge a lot of money.
