I am helping a friend build his website and he intends to have a bi-weekly newsletter on his site with an automatic delivery to a list of email addresses.

You need to set up a small database which will store a list of entered email address (usually from a form, or from a request to “subscribe” sent to an email).
a server side script has to collect the emails and send the newsletter to each.
If this is too complicated, just have people send emails to him with “subscribe” in the subject line, he can add their address to a text file, then manually input them into the BCC field. I’m guessing that in the beginning there won’t be too many address, when it gets more cumbersome you can think of an upgrade to something more sophisticated.
