The Superfast Mailgun add-on for the Newsletter plugin allows you to take full advantage of the Mailgun “Batch Send” API. This makes it possible to send a newsletter to up to 1,000 addresses in a single API call.

For 10,000 subscribers, that’s 10 API calls instead of 10,000 calls. Quite a difference. It will take a lot less time to send out your newsletter.

  • Sends newsletters to up to 1,200 subscribers per hour.

  • Polls Mailgun for “bounces” and updates your mailing list accordingly.

  • Support by email or through the forum on wordpress.org

Note:
Filters ‘newsletter_message_html’, ‘newsletter_message_text’, ‘newsletter_message_subject’ and ‘newsletter_message’ are called only once per email, and receive a null $user parameter. This is because Mailgun takes care of replacing user-specific tags in the email.

Pro version

For mailing lists with more than 1,000 subscribers, get the Pro version!

  • Sends up to 120,000 emails / hour

  • Integrated Open/Click statistics (Requires the Newsletter Statistics add-on)

  • Selectable polling frequency

  • Transactional emails (e.g. Welcome email, subscription confirmation) can use a different route, e.g. using a different domain

  • Priority email support

You can easily upgrade from within your WordPress dashboard.
