Most email marketing software has features that assist the user in the process of organizing contacts, creating campaigns, and scheduling communication. In addition, the software usually provides features, such as an “unsubscribe check” that assist in complying with the CAN-SPAM law.

Email marketing software is used to help build your list, maintain, keep regular communication with your list with little effort.
Aweber is one of the most popular & highly recommended email marketing software. It walks you through a wizard.
You use it to capture people’s email and other details with their permission. This is stored by a 3rd party (eg Aweber), you can then schedule your emails to be sent whenever you want to from the time they joined your list. Eg. Person 1 joins on Monday receives welcome email instantly and 2nd email on Wed. Person B joins on Tue receives welcome email on Tuesday and 2nd email on Thursday. etc
You can also broadcast an email to your list when you have promotions running etc.
Hence, one of the major benefits is that you can have all your emails pre-written such as a 7 part course and send it out on a schedule based on when they join your list. As well as being able to broadcast to the entire list.
The biggest benefit is that you can do all this and still personalise it. No longer do you have to send individual emails to each recipient.

As owner of The Computer Psychic (www.thecomputerpsychic.com) I use MailChimp.com as a free tool to manage my mailing lists. My clients can subscribe and unsubscribe easily, and it provides a layer of insulation between me and my mailings, preventing me from being accused of spamming.
