I’m using your service for about a year now and i must say it really increased my contact with our (futured) clients !

Keep up the good work !

Well, I just want to mention that having someone call after I first
signed up was unusual, and he even left a voice mail.

The other thing was to receive snail mail that wasn’t considered JUNK.

Keep up the great support.

I posted a comment – February 27th, 2007 at 3:51 pm – saying that I would like it if Aweber moved away from having having such a strong weighting toward customers seeing the "listname", which is the unique aweber email address.

It’s getting harder and harder to be able to choose an Aweber email that sounds even similar to the name of your newsletter.
"Please confirm your subscribtion to 123456@aweber.com" means nothing to people.

Here’s a quote from my email:
"I know there are a bunch of different subjects to choose from, but it just seems like there’s still an overweight leaning towards the aweber email being shown to subscribers, when really it means nothing to them."

In your reply (February 27th, 2007 at 3:58 pm) you said this:
"You can already fully customize both the confirmed opt-in subject line and the thank you for subscribing page."

If feel your reply misses the point of my comment. Yes I know you can customise the opt-in subject line – but this takes a day of so to be approved.

If we look at the "Pre-approved Subjects" for the opt-in email out of the first 16 subjects, 14 contain {!listname}. That’s what I mean by there is an overweighting towards the listname, when really it means nothing to the customer.

e.g. for my listname, they didn’t just request information from dollarsnsense@aweber.com – they requested information from wisemoney.

One solution that I’d suggest is to have a "List Name" that is customizable and separate from the aweber email address – and this customizable list name is what would get inserted into the subjects. We’d be able to give the list the same name as our ezine. (And it wouldn’t have to be unique for all Aweber).

So please hear what I’m meaning: it’s not just about what can be approved by your team. It’s also about how quickly and instantly I can control the details of a new list I’m setting up. And how much I can just run with the defaults, because they make sense, instead of always having to change them.

Thanks
