George, there are a lot of
George, there are a lot of ways to do this.
At PTP, we have our contacts in a database, and when we prepare our newsletter, CORN (view it here), we export the contacts to Excel and do a mail merge to email using Word.
There are also companies that offer newsletter services - Constant Contact is one example that came up at COaTI http://www.constantcontact.com/index.jsp.
If you have a web host that has PHP and MySQL (most do), you can install a product called PHP List - http://tincan.co.uk/phplist which offers most of the same features that you'd pay for for free.
