Send mass mails

[marcus123]

How can I send an email to 1,000 users? I have their emails but I can't use mass mails function due to the fact that some of them have unchecked the option to receive messages from admin.

[.m.]

see replies here
however we do not need mail IDs to send mass mails - we can send mass mail/PM to all users or specific user groups etc.

Thanks .M. unfortunately my account doesn't have phpmyadmin

^ you can use MySquirrel plugin to run SQL queries from admin panel

Have someone used it? I don't want to mess my database you know.

^ only you will be able to use it on your forum and I believe you know what you do

Thanks but I mean is it safe to use this plugin? Did you used it?

It gives me this error!
