Some folks may have noticed that Mailmanagr is now offering a paid option. Well, sort of. Mailmanagr is trying to offer a paid option, but we’re still waiting on final setup from our payment processor. Here’s the low-down:
Mailmanagr will now be available in two flavours: a free option, and a paid option. The free plan will allow you to send all the messages you want for up to 20 addresses that you specify. You can send as many messages as you want, and allow as many people to send as you want (no limits there). The only other limit on the free plan is that file attachments will be stripped out as well.
The paid plan has no restrictions. Set up a gagillion addresses and send attachments until your heart’s content. It’ll run you $7 US per month.
We love Mailmangr, and use it extensively ourselves. That said, it does cost money to host it and to run it. We’ve had lots of positive feedback from people during our start up stages telling us that we should be charging for Mailmanagr (hey, ask and ye shall receive!) Making the decision to restrict file attachment handling was a tough one; but the reality of it is that attachments are what “strain” the system the most. They use the most bandwidth (and it’s two times the size of each file processed as they need to be downloaded from e-mail and then uploaded to Basecamp).
