This is a great idea. It or something like it could be really popular in 
the non-profit world, where the big commercial solutions (getactive, 
convio, kintera) are vast and powerful but too expensive for all but the 
biggest places, and the lower-end solutions (patronmail) don't do very 
much.

Any plans to build in personalization features with web content, eg 
image links, so you can track who reads the message and/or clicks 
through to a web site? Non-profits love that stuff.
