Free professional autoresponder
I was signed up to mailchimp but I found the service to be crap and the fact that everything worth using it for costed something, so for someone that is just starting out with email marketing, I didn't really want to be forking out a ton of cash monthly for a month or two until I had created a campaign or got a few people on my list or something, I think it's unfair to justify the cost if you're not actually using their service fully.
So I did some Googling and found www.benchmarkemail.com/, they provide a free email marketing system that is more professional looking than mailchimp and has better functionality and a wordpress plugin (not another one!) to implement all of this on your website, or you can use shortcode if you don't want another plugin slowing your site down.
On the free account you can have upto 2000 email addresses and send up to 14,000 emails per month, that's enough for me and I'd say most people here at WA.
The free account includes all the email marketing bells and whistles including auto responders, campaigns, scheduled emails and the rest.
One awesome feature that I LOVED is when you install the wordpress plugin, it gives you the option on every post you do to send the post to your email list, to schedule the sending of the post and much more all from within the WP editor, I think that's an awesome function as sometimes we just don't want to have to share the same info twice, we find something relevant and send it to all avenues.
Hope this helps a few people on their internet marketing journey :)

Thanks for the share. But take note you can't use it if you are building an Affiliate Bootcamp site. "Distributes, promotes, posts or offers services or content that solicit participation in pyramid or ponzi schemes, multi-level or channel (MLM) businesses or services that include but are not limited to work at home jobs, "get rich quick" schemes, services or content that offers ways to "build wealth" or become "financially independent"."

Thank you kindly Jane. The instant I made the first commentvtrain realized that the advice came from Kyle..no need to second guess that one : )
Kyle and Carson might for this platform but, I asked Kyle, for me personally and said to use Aweber: )
Sure, Aweber costs though, this is why I went for a free autoresponder that has ALL the functionality that Aweber does but doesn't cost me a cent.
Lol nope I'm not, thanks for the heads up.
But I guess that includes every single website that offers affiliate links right? Affiliate marketing is a MLM and a ponzi scheme of sorts it has just been viewed as a "legal" or "ethical" way to do both.
So technically Amazon couldn't use their Autoresponders... perhaps they should look at their terms.
