19/06/2012 MailMarket 0.4
Bugfix: On some versions of Windows installing MailMarket in the Program Files folder caused problems. MailMarket had no rights to create
or modify files, which resulted in MailMarket not starting. This problem has now been fixed: All user data is now saved in the user's home
directory under the folder MailMarket.
25/05/2012 MailMarket 0.3
In this version the layout is completely revamped. It should be more intuitive and more beautiful.

13/04/2012 MailMarket 0.2
This is our first public version!
So chances are there are still lots of little mistakes and bugs around ...
If you find any, please let us know at mailmarket@beanpole.be or https://sourceforge.net/projects/mailmarket, thank you.
Description:
MailMarket is first intended as a desktop application that will allow users to send emails to different mailinglists.
MailMarket will be built out of different components -- allowing it to run on different environments, as desktop or server -- and use custom content store implementations.
The initial application is built as a Java Desktop application, allowing it to run on any platform that supports Java.
Notes: this project was created by developers at Beanpole (http://www.beanpole.be) as a trainining project for our juniors. We chose to build MailMarket because we felt there was a need for such an application.
Features:
Easy to use: Just follow the wizard

Runs in the background
Send HTML or Text mails
Send to multiple mailing lists at the same time
Save your mail(s) as template and re-use later
