Feature Suggestion - Integration with MailChimp

[Johnrc]

Hi,

In your recent releases of IP.Board, you featured integration with MailChimp's transactional system "Mandrill". We signed up and are very happy with the service and company - so much so that we are now using MailChimp for our monthly newsletters.

As I was browsing through MailChimp's system, I came upon an area called "Integrations" - other companies that have integrated their software with MailChimp. An example of this is PayPal. When a user makes a purchase on PayPal, their email address can be automatically imported into a particular MailChimp list via their API.

I think that an IPB integration with their service would be great. When a user signs up on our community, there could be an option to opt-in to the newsletter during the registration process. Their email address would then be automatically sent into our MailChimp account. I've attached a screenshot of some of the integrated applications.

Thanks for your consideration!

Sorry for bringing an old thread up but do users (IPB User) need to re-confirm their emails to get newsletters from mailchimp?
