Send email updates to fans and contacts who opted in — manage lists and subscribers, compose campaigns, and queue mail for delivery. Everything is scoped to the band you have selected.
Create a list with Add List on the overview, then open it to add subscribers one by one or pull contacts from Relations when that integration is available. Each row shows name, email, and subscription date; search filters the table. Subscribers added through the public signup flow must confirm by email before they receive campaigns.
Your plan may limit how many lists you can own and how many subscribers each list may hold — disabled Add buttons mean you hit a cap.
Each list can publish its own public signup page that anyone can use to subscribe — no login needed. Open a list, go to its settings, and turn on Enable public signup page. When you save, a public URL is created automatically (shown on the settings screen with copy and open buttons). Turn the toggle off again and the URL returns a 404.
The page mirrors the public artist page layout: a header photo on top and the signup form below. Upload a Header photo for the list, or leave it empty to fall back to your band photo. Set the Newsletter language to control the language of both the public page and the confirmation email; the page text is translated automatically and defaults to English.
Confirmation link email (double opt-in). Under Confirmation email you can choose whether new subscribers must confirm by clicking a link in their inbox before they receive campaigns. Leave Send a confirmation link email on (recommended) for double opt-in, or turn it off to subscribe people immediately. You can edit the confirmation subject and body; use [confirm_link] in the body where the link should appear. Leave the fields empty to use the default English text, translated to the selected language.
From a list, open Campaigns → New Campaign (or the submenu entry). Write a subject and body in the rich editor; use [name] in the text to insert each subscriber's name when mail goes out. Save keeps a draft; Queue Emails builds the send queue for confirmed, subscribed addresses only.
Queue Emails stays disabled until outgoing mail is configured — see Settings below. After queueing, delivery runs in batches in the background; you can leave the page. Duplicate an existing campaign from its list when you want to reuse content.
Open SMTP Settings from the newsletters overview (or use Band → Settings → Preferences if your band already stores mail there). Enter host, port, encryption, username, password, and the from address, then save and run Test Connection. Newsletters uses whichever complete SMTP profile exists for the band. Until one is set, campaigns cannot be queued and a banner reminds you on list and campaign screens.
Queued mail is sent gradually so large lists do not overwhelm your provider. Each message includes an unsubscribe link; one click removes that address from future sends for that list. Public signup and confirm links on your website use the band's API token — set that in newsletters settings if you embed forms outside the app.
If you do not see edit, send, or SMTP controls, your band lead has not granted those rights on newsletters.
Nothing sends after queueing — confirm SMTP with Test Connection, check that subscribers are confirmed and not unsubscribed, and wait for the next batch if you just queued a large list.
Queue Emails greyed out — complete SMTP in Newsletters or Band preferences first.
Bounces or missing mail — verify subscriber addresses, provider sending limits, and spam folders.
