Regarding the mass mail feature I have questions and suggestions:

* Are Emails send out via SMTP?
* Is it possibile to integrate a reply-to address which varies from the sending address?
* Cron job might be useful when sending out many emails

Are Emails send out via SMTP?

Sure, if you've configured your CMS to send via SMTP.

Is it possibile to integrate a reply-to address which varies from the sending address?

No, the email address you've specified within your CMS configuration will be used.

Cron job might be useful when sending out many emails

Sorry, as far as I am aware there is no cron support. This is something possibly for the future.

yes, therefore I made the suggestion with the cron job. Especially for sending out larger amounts of emails it would be helpful to be as powerful as e.g. acajoom.

We've further plans to extend its functionality, but for the time being is rather functional and powerful.

To extend my wish list, here are the features that would be nice:

* Availability in front end for special user groups (e.g. author and above)
* varying reply-to address from sender address
* sending via cron job
* possibility so schedule the time when sending it out
* statistics for html mails about who read the email
