Live
Demo
Below is a guided demo tour. You may follow the below steps to
navigate through the i-Newsletter.NET system.
Please click here to enter
the live demo site. To avoid abuse of the system, limited resources
are allocated to the demo system, and testing session
will be timeout in a few minutes.
You may also download and install a 15-day fully functional evaluation
version here.
Regularly we will clean up the records in the live demo
site. Notification will be NOT given before removing your testing
records.
Login
You may log on to the trial system using one of the below accounts:
Demo group administrator:
- DemoAdmin1
- DemoAdmin2
- DemoAdmin3
- DemoAdmin4
Demo group user:
- DemoUser1
- DemoUser2
- DemoUser3
- DemoUser4
The password is demo. Please note that the password
is case sensitive.
Both administrator and user can compose and send newsletter.
The differences between them are the authorities to perform group
administration e.g. add users, change password policies, and delete
authorities on bounce back records, tracked link statistics, etc.
As i-Newsletter.NET only allows single log on for each user account,
you may use the other ones just in case the account you have chosen
has been logged on by other people. Please contact
us if you have problem in logging on to the demo system.
The 'Home' page will be shown after successful logon:

on the left hand side of the desired newsletter.
Before delivery the newsletter to your recipients, most likely
you would like to receive a test copy of the newsletter to verify
the correctness and appearance of the newsletter. Simply verify
the contents of the newsletter, and scroll down to the bottom
of the screen. The below panel will be shown, which facilitates
you to send testing newsletter.

Enter the test email address in the 'Test email address' box.

in the newsletter details screen. Then follow the instructions
on the screens to release the newsletter for sending.
Please note that we have limited the number of email that the
demonstration version can send everyday. If your newsletter is
released, but held due to too many emails sent today, the system
will schedule to deliver the outstanding newsletter a day later.
If you have entered 'Email to Receive Notification' in the newsletter
record, you will then receive the delivery progress notification
at regular interval, and the completion notification when the
newsletter has been sent.
