RoboMail has a built-in e-mail server which can send out e-mail without using ISP`s server. You can prepare personalized e-mail easily. You can send newsletter, product release, promotion to customers easily.

Pros: RoboMail has a built-in e-mail server, which can send out e-mail without using ISP`s server. User can send personalized e-mail easily, which stands out from tons of junk mails. User can send newsletter, product release, and promotional events to customers.

There’s a log provided that is a on-going picture of the mailing process as it is happening.

Cons: The whole method is identical to setting up a group address comprising all the addresses to which one want to send mails. The program then sends out mails exactly the same way any standard mail program would send out mails. Without any productivity gain besides being bogged down by the problem of creation of a mailing list, there’s nothing unique about this program that differentiates it from any other standard e-mail solution. In fact the user interface is fairly complex. No exclusion list can be provided to the application. Time outs and retries cannot be specified for the program, which could have been useful.

Just being able to format the e-mail cannot give the sender any advantage over other junk mail. Formatting is not a very significant issue in this respect.

Overall this application fails to impress. The effort required to do a mass mailing through the application will be quite heavy. This package is rated at 2 stars.
