from 5 different people! Our templates have been tested in
every relevant inbox for rendering and delivery (Gmail, Yahoo, MSN, AOL,
Hotmail, Outlook, Thunderbird, Lotus, Apple Mail and
many others. They are also tested for 100% delivery against every
Major spam filter - Barracuda, Brightmail, MessageLabs,
SpamAssassin, Gmail, Hotmail, Apple Mail, Outlook and others. |

Through your vegaPort lead generation forms. Unsubscribe's and hard bounces
are automatically suppressed and removed from future mailings. Total compliance,
peace of mind.

provider to our free service. You can also add subscribers individually and combine
lists. Plus, automatically add subscribers to database from lead capture forms. |
| |
| List Segmentation (not!) |
| We don’t offer list segmentation. Why? Because no matter what we build, you would be better off managing segmentation on desktop applications like excel. You can use sophisticated filters and run any kind of analysis you can dream of. Why replicate something when you can't match it. Export your unsegmented lists from vegaport in any file format (csv, tsv, excel etc.), process in your favorite application, and easily re-import the segmented lists into vegaPort. Done! |
| |
| Lead Capture Forms |
| Easily create lead capture forms. Customize them to suit your branding and post anywhere - your website, blog, landing pages etc. When customers fill up the forms, the data will be automatically added to your database. |
| |
| Custom Opt-out Landing Pages |
| When one of your subscribers opts out of your list, we allow you to redirect the user to your own custom landing page so you can recapture the user by offering incentives. Helps prevent list attrition and keep your list growing rather than shrinking (Paid feature) |
