I use Sendy[0] for this very reason. It uses Amazon's SES and whilst it isn't as feature full as Mailchimp it does the job, costs about $60.
Note, I'm not affiliated in any way I just started to use it as I needed auto-responders and Mailchimp was too expensive for my use-case.

- oneeyedpigeon 13y agoUntil Amazon stop being US region-only for SES, it's a non-starter for mass emailing; we moved off it when ~ 4,000 sends was taking 2-3 hours nightly, and the flaky Joomla extension sending the mail would bail out halfway through, leaving me to pick up the pieces and resend. Still use SES for transactional stuff, though.
- ibrow 13y agoThanks for the info. We haven't hit near that number yet, we mainly use it for the autoresponder stuff and some simple mailings to a few hundered addresses.
- goldvine 13y agoI don't understand why people refuse to pay marginal (<$100/mo) amounts for SaaS services. Look at the miserable, billable time going towards solving a problem that's already been solved by many.
