What it does
Keeping in touch with new subscribers takes steady effort. Sending every welcome note and follow-up by hand gets hard to keep up with as a list grows, and messages end up going out late or not at all. This plugin handles that work by sending follow-up email sequences automatically. You can also schedule newsletters to go out daily, weekly or monthly, which suits blogs and businesses that publish on a regular rhythm.
The autoresponder sits inside the Newsletter plugin for WordPress, so it works alongside the subscription forms, the drag and drop composer and the list tools you already use there. Subscribers can be sorted into targeted lists, greeted with custom welcome emails and retargeted when they stop responding. Reports on opens, clicks and subscriber behavior show how each sequence performs, and sending can run through external mail services such as Amazon SES, SendGrid or Mailgun.
Best for
- Bloggers who want new subscribers to get a welcome series
- Small businesses nurturing leads with scheduled follow-up emails
- Marketers running recurring newsletters from a WordPress site

Questions about Newsletter Autoresponder
What does the autoresponder actually do?
It sends follow-up email sequences to your subscribers automatically. Once you set up the messages and timing, each subscriber moves through the sequence on their own schedule. You can also schedule newsletters to go out daily, weekly or monthly.
Can I send through a service like Amazon SES or SendGrid?
Yes. The Newsletter plugin can connect to external SMTP providers including Amazon SES, SendGrid and Mailgun. This lets you send email through those services instead of relying on your web server, which often has sending limits.
Will it work with the forms I already use on my site?
The Newsletter plugin connects with Contact Form 7, Ninja Forms, Elementor, Gravity Forms, WP Forms and other form builders. That means people who sign up through those forms can be added to your lists and receive your automated emails.
Can I see how my automated emails perform?
Yes. Campaign reports track opens, clicks and subscriber behavior. You can use those numbers to adjust your sequences, and the list tools let you retarget recipients who have stopped engaging with your emails.
