THE CLASSIC COBRA CONNECTION
Start newsletters with contacts selected in cobra
The installed mailfino add-in connects cobra Desktop directly to mailfino. Select an individual contact or a filtered group, then start the newsletter workflow from within cobra.
Using cobra online? There is a separate cobra online integration. This page covers the classic add-in for installed cobra versions.

COBRA ADD-IN IN ACTION
See cobra and mailfino work together
This video from our previous cobra page shows the newsletter workflow with the classic add-in. The interface is from an earlier version; selecting recipients, transferring them, and sending remain the key steps.
The video opens on Vimeo only after you click.
FOR NEW CONTACTS TOO
Bring website sign-ups into cobra
Use mailfino forms and double opt-in to collect sign-ups on your website. You can import form submissions into cobra through the add-in—for example, after a newsletter sign-up or event registration.
BEFORE INSTALLATION
The right add-in for your setup
The correct installer depends on your cobra version and account type. The mailfino add-in and the cobra News & Mail Service add-in are different add-in versions.
For the mailfino add-in, tell us your cobra version and mailfino account type. We can then check compatibility and point you to the right setup. If you use News & Mail Service, you need its own add-in; cobra handles contract and billing questions for that service.
FAQ
Questions about the cobra Desktop add-in
Is this the same integration as cobra online?
No. This add-in is installed in cobra Desktop. The cobra online integration uses a separate connection.
Which cobra versions are supported?
There are different add-in versions for older and newer cobra releases. Tell us your exact cobra version before installing so we can check the appropriate add-in and current support status.
Are contacts synchronized automatically?
The documented add-in workflow starts with your selection or filtered group in cobra. You initiate the transfer with “Create newsletter”; it is not a continuous real-time synchronization.
What can I bring back into cobra?
Campaign reports and form entries can be imported into cobra using the relevant functions. The scope and field mapping depend on your setup.
Is News & Mail Service the same add-in?
No. mailfino and cobra News & Mail Service use different add-in versions. Which one you need depends on your account.
