Greetings all:

I'd like to know about what is "up and coming" in terms of technology to get your organization's message out to a broad range of people: constituents, funders and media; and I would also like to know about technology which "reinforces" your message.

Thanks !

Any suggestions on best formates and means of sending e-newsletters?

At my organization most of us use Apple Mail to organize and manage our email. However when we are out and about, those of us who don't have laptops have to access our email through our web-based email which is really sloppy and doesn't filter junk mail. The web-based mail also doesn't have the old mail that we've sent or received, or the folders we've organized on our computers.
