Is there a way to group all email addresses from customers?

Is it possible to take all email addresses (and preferably names) from people (not customers) who have emailed me and group them into a list? I would like to create a mass email list.

Does the interface allow for this? Thanks. :cool:

Customers who have emailed you and have not registered themselves with your store will not have their email addresses captured in the database.

As such it would be difficult to group them in any sort of email list from within Zen Cart.

Thanks Canopy! My client wanted to know and I'm new to ZenCart. This looks like a great tool! Perhaps I will have to download it for myself. :)

Be careful doing bulk unsolicited commercial email - many people consider this spam. One approach is suggested here:
