You can also categorize your contacts in order to send emails to smaller groups, such as an email going only to close friends and families, or only to pastors, etc.
Plus, if you use the TntMPD program (listed above) you can link your MailChimp account to your TntMPD database for easy synchronization to make updating contact information very simple.
Free for up to 2,000 subscribers and 12,000 emails each month.
