Thank you for the reply. I think we are going to use RSS and hook it up that way with Campaign Monitor ([RSS to Email](https://www.campaignmonitor.com/create/rss-to-email/))

<p>A client has a Campaign Monitor email list that he wants his new site to integrate with. We want to have a form that adds new subscribers to the list, and we also need to trigger a mailout to the list when a new blog post is published (not saved, but published on the site). He also wants the text of the blog post in the email that's sent out.</p>

<p>We are struggling to think of a solution that would work and can't find a plugin that would do the job. Sprout Email almost does it, but the Notifications part of that plugin doesn't hook into Campaign Monitor.</p>

<p>Anyone got any ideas for solving this?</p>

If you can't find an existing plugin that has the functionality, you'll have the roll a custom one.

But knowing when an entry goes from pending to live is a [problem in and of itself](https://craftcms.stackexchange.com/questions/17250/fire-event-first-time-future-dated-entry-goes-live-from-pending).

Assuming you got that sorted, the plugin would have to integrate with [Campaign Monitor API](https://www.campaignmonitor.com/api/) and send your email out to your list when the event happens.
