Hi Sophie
We used to use Pure360 but thankfully don't anymore. We moved to Emailcenter after Pure360 who were fairly good until they decided to 'upgrade' their interface which basically ruined the user experience. We are now on Mailchimp and although there are some issues we have found it to be a good service with good customer service.
I recommend signing up with Mailchimp and use the free service to do some testing so you can see how it feels.
Thanks
Nick Stevens

Hi Sophie
You might try http://info.smartmessages.net/
Their staff include the maintainer of phpmailer and former cray computer architects. Great performance and features with very good support.
I've worked with pure360 the past 3 years and wouldn't recommend. System is very very slow quite often. Lots of outages at crucial times.
Mailchimp is great for under 2000 or so names, but then becomes expensive.
I currently manage a cople of mailchimp accounts that are below the pay for threshold and it is excellent.
