Could someone help me please. I need to send around 500 emails at a time to advertise offers to people on my database. I have just found out that my email/web provider limits emails to 10 at a time to avoid spam.
Is there a solution to this?
Thanks in advance.

I looked at tons of these (email software) and settled on:
http://www.lmhsoft.com/ecamp/
I liked it because you can send html emails, its reasonably priced at 99 EUR for up to 2k mailings at a time, and simple to use.
It's best to send bulk email with special software (or service such as constant contact), as it won't look good to your group if you cc everyones email address in for the whole world to see.

Thanks for this (and any other suggestions)!
The optinpro address doesn't seem to work. Is it the correct spelling?

Optinpro link is working now, there was a stray comma in the URL.

Smallbizmailer - http://www.smallbizmailer.com is very reliable, easy to use and only about $10 a month (for up to 10k emails I think).
Microsoft Listbuilder costs about $30 a month but is a similar service. No 'set up fee' for either of them.
Remember that you'll need to stay within the law - both the UK Privacy and Electronic Communications Act 2003 and the Data Protection Act 1998, plus if your list is hosted in and sent from the US (which applies for example to the 2 services I mentioned above, plus Optin Pro and many others) your emails will have to be compliant with the CAN-SPAM federal legislation.
best of luck
