Overview
Email, the CMS way
Build subscriber lists (active / inactive) and organise them into groups. A newsletter is simply a CMS page flagged NEWSLETTER — design it like any page, dropping personalisation BB codes ([NAME], [FIRSTNAME], [EMAIL], [UNSUBSCRIBELINK]) where each recipient’s value should appear.
You must test a newsletter before the Send button unlocks; then send to chosen subscribers and/or groups. Every send is archived, an unsubscribe plugin handles opt-outs, and the platform’s GDPR framework is wired in end-to-end.

How it's wired
Reuses the CMS page system
The newsletter template is a CMS page; the front render becomes the email body.
Core email + GDPR
Sends through Melis Core email and hooks the platform GDPR framework (info / extract / delete + auto-delete).
Your own SMTP
Set Host / Username / Password in Configuration, otherwise the platform default is used.
// A page becomes a newsletter when its type is NEWSLETTER. // The front renders it as the email body, BB codes resolved // per recipient: [NAME] [FIRSTNAME] [EMAIL] [UNSUBSCRIBELINK]
