Does s2Member integrate w/ mailing list services like MailChimp?
Pre-integrated List Servers (Mailing List Services)
s2Member comes with the following list server integrations that are all ready-to-go.
MailChimp® This service makes it easy to send email newsletters to your customers, manage your subscriber lists, and track campaign performance. With s2Member, you can have your WordPress users/members automatically subscribed to your MailChimp marketing lists (i.e., newsletters / auto-responders).

If you're on-the-fence, MailChimp comes highly recommended!- AWeber™ If you're looking to get your first email campaign off the ground, or you're a seasoned veteran who wants to dig into advanced tools like detailed email web analytics, activity based segmentation, geo-targeting and broadcast split-testing, AWeber's got just what you need to make email marketing work for you.
