In the early days of the website I found myself corresponding with an increasing number of folk who were either offering me material and encouragement or asking me for further information. The "Newsletter" was the result of one of those flashes of inspiration you get just before you drop off to sleep (and usually forget when you wake the following morning). This one stayed, and saved me a lot of repeating myself over and over to different people and forgetting who had been told what.

In those days I sent 'news' out as a simple e-mail to a growing list of folk who had e-mailed me about Michael Bird or the website in general. However the explosion of spam in the last few years, and the introduction of spam protection by web providers, meant that mass circulation e-mails were frequently rejected.

I decided to use a mailing list service. Like many things on the net it requires "double opt-in" on the part of the recipient before their e-mail can be added to the list. (To prevent you being signed up against your will.)
