How to Send a Mass Email to All Users in Joomla

Sometimes you want to send a message via email to all of your users. Sometimes you want to send that message only to a group of users or only to those having access to the back-end. Sending emails is always a bit delicate. Nobody wants to be a SPAMMER and nobody wants to receive SPAM, so be careful!

In order to use the mass mail user component, you have to configure Joomla for sending emails in Global Configuration → Server → Mail settings. You may then configure the Subject Prefix and the Mailbody Suffix in Users → Mass Mail Users: Options - Mass Mail.

Have fun!
