Top 5 Features

Professionally Designed Email Templates ProFusion Mailer includes professionally designed email templates that have been tested to work with all email clients including Outlook, Thunderbird, Hotmail, Gmail, Yahoo, etc. You can use these templates to design a custom email template for your client or you can even upload their existing email template.
Complete Campaign and Link Tracking Reports For each email campaign your clients send, you can see exactly how many people opened their email, how many people unsubscribed, which links they clicked, email forwarding statistics and more. ProFusion Mailer's campaign reporting features are simply unmatched.
Painless Integration Into Any Website Use ProFusion Mailer's built-in form creation wizard to creating subscription forms that your clients can place on their web sites to collect their visitors details. If they have an existing email subscriber list they can import that too, all from ProFusion Mailer.
Create and Send Unlimited Autoresponders Your clients can easily create and send unlimited autoresponder emails on autopilot with ProFusion Mailer. Take it a step further and only send autoresponders to subscribers who match certain criteria, such as a particular age, location or interest.
Integrated, Automatic Bounce Handling ProFusion Mailer makes it easy to remove bad email addresses from your clients subscriber lists with its built-in bounce handling engine. Simply setup an email account to accept bounced emails when your client sends a campaign and ProFusion Mailer takes care of the rest.

Automated bounce processing if account information is available
Bounce processing differentiates between types (hard, soft). ProFusion Mailer detects a hard bounce and sets the status of the subscriber to bounced and never emails them again. ProFusion Mailer detects a soft bounce but does not change the status of the subscribe until a soft bounce has occurred 5 times on that same subscriber. Once an email has soft bounced 5 times, it is treated as a hard bounce.
