Introduction

Community Builder Communication, Newsletter, Mailing & Distribution Lists, Email

Postrider is a mailing list and newsletter component for Joomla, built for site owners who've outgrown "send to everyone" newsletter plugins and need real, segmented list management that works properly with their existing member data.


Key features:

  • True per-list unsubscribe — members can leave one list while staying subscribed to every other list they belong to. Most mailing tools treat unsubscribe as all-or-nothing; Postrider doesn't.
  • Native Community Builder integration — lists sync live from CB groups, with full merge-tag support for your existing CB custom fields (no separate contact list to maintain by hand).
  • Listserv-style reflector/discussion lists — true post-and-distribute lists with reply-threading, not just one-way broadcast newsletters.
  • Per-recipient delivery tracking — real open/click/bounce tracking per subscriber, not just an aggregate campaign summary.
  • RFC 8058 one-click unsubscribe, built in natively for full compliance with modern mailbox-provider requirements (Gmail/Yahoo bulk sender rules).
  • GDPR-conscious subscriber model — explicit opt-in records tied to consent, not silently harvested from your Joomla user table.
  • Digest mode — per-list digest compilation and scheduled sending, alongside standard one-off campaigns.
  • Familiar native Joomla admin UI for managing lists, subscribers, campaigns, and reports — no separate dashboard to learn.

Ideal for membership organisations, clubs, and associations already running Community Builder who need real segmented, list-based communication rather than a single blunt newsletter button.
