Guide Review - Mail Bomber 9.2 - Email Marketing Software
Mail Bomber is far better than its name would suggest. It drops bombs neither on you nor your recipients. Instead, it shines with fast message delivery through multiple connections to multiple third-party SMTP server, flexible mail merge capabilities and extensive online help.
Unfortunately, Mail Bomber cannot deliver mail directly, and it does not handle bounced emails. Both these facts require that you manage your list either in a different program or by hand.
Mail Bomber is a fabulous tool for sending highly personalized messages to predefined list of recipients, however. The option to compose your message in a different email program (Outlook Express, for example) and use the .eml file as a template is especially convenient.
