General Information

Inxmail Professional, a proven email marketing solution, allows you to deliver highly personalised newsletters and email campaigns. Intelligent newsletter templates, powerful interfaces to third-​party systems, a high degree of deliverability and outstanding service lay the groundwork for effective email marketing and holistic communication.

Using Inxmail statistical data can be collected to create a market analysis. Other features of Inxmail include the ability to personalise the text, link tracking, create multilingual Newsletters, quality test before shipping, integrate into our content management system and also create an official adaptive layout which was created in collaboration with the Corporate Communications office.


The newsletter service is available to ETH employees, lecturers and board members of student associations.

The use of the newsletter service is subject to a fee. When using our Newsletter service, you are required to use the ETH template and the colours of the colour catalog provided by Corporate Communications.

  • Basic fee for 1 mailing list (ML) (service + template + 1 named user (NU) with training): CHF 300
  • 1 Additional named user: CHF 100
  • 1 Additional named user with training: CHF 200

The renewal fee in subsequent years consists of the basic fee plus the fee for additional named users (e.g. CHF 300 + 1 NU = CHF 400)


If you are interested in using our Newsletter service, then please send an email with the subject "Register to Newsletter service" and the completed registration form to support@newsmailer.ethz.ch

We would like to point out that the structure of your newsletter created for you is based on the information in your registration form. In a further step, you will get an Inxmail training.


Newsletters are not mailings, as we know them from the mailinglists, but they are a marketing tool with many and complex features like link tracking, reporting, personalisation and an adaptive template with predefined areas for images.

In case you do not need these features, we recommend to use our free mailinglist tool Sympa.
