This component works great on 1.0.X and 1.5 in Legacy mode.

I'm using this on at least 4 sites right now and many more in the future.

Letterman Newsletter
Letterman in my experience is way more stable than AcaJoom (the free version) or any other free newsletter component. But it has one major drawback...the project appears to be dead.

Expect to get no support. The forums on the developers website are overrun with spammers so you can hardly look through them to find answers.

If you don't need all the bells and whistles and don't mind the project being dead then it's still a great component. I use it one two sites that I run, one sending out to 450+ and the other is in the works but it will be up to 2000 within a year.

Project isn't dead although I can understand the comments in regards to the forum. Changes are afoot, version 2 is well underway and a new site is about t be launched.

This is a easy to use module.

Some say put it in the Debug module position but if you have Debug disabled in your Global config it won't work (in my experience with RocketTheme Themes).

I just put it in a position that is at the bottom of the page such as footer or the last user module. Just look at your site preview in-line with positions and pick the best one for you.

This would be a great module but it need more development. As of right now there is no way to input quotes (write to the quote file) from the backend or frontend of Joomla. That would be the main feature that would make this go from an 'ok' module to a great one.

I would rather see the module be have a MySQL backbone rather than a flat file though.

If you want to enter quotes from the backend, you can use my other quote module, Jx EvaEmma, which has this ability. I will however probably release a new version of this module with that feature as well.

If you want more features and a MySQL backend you have other quote modules available for that. This module is designed to be as simple as possible without the need of any extra components or database tables.
