Inserting records in cutomers table via form

[fog49]

My client would like to have a form outside of Zen Cart to collect email addresses. No problem. He then wants to be able to use the emails to send out Zen Cart newsletters.

The only information he wants to collect is names and email.

If I insert only these two fields in the customers table, in the database, so that those new emails will get the newsletter, will I cause any problems with Zen Cart?

Might suggest to keep it all within ZenCart and this module does just that

There is also a hack to use phplist

Thanks, I will give those a look. Client wants to collect the info outside of Zen Cart, php list might be the answer.
