I'll answer them in order:

1. Yes. WP Admin -> s2Member -> General Options -> Open Registration

2. You can make the password be generated and emailed to the person, instead of letting him enter one, which effectively means he has to check his email before he can use the account (activate it). WP Admin -> s2Member -> General Options -> Custom Registration Fields -> Allow Custom Passwords during Registration

3. s2Member Pro has an Export tool, as well as an Import one, to backup users and edit them in bulk respectively. The export CSV doesn't have their passwords, though, those are encrypted in the database. WP Admin -> s2Member -> Import / Export

4. Yes, this is standard in WordPress. /wp-login?action=lostpassword

5. s2Member has an API to integrate with email services like AWeber and MailChimp, which you can use to follow up with your users by email. WP Admin -> s2Member -> API / List Servers

I hope that helps.

Will this plugin work for me?

2011-06-22T12:29:00-05:00

I have just a few questions/requirements before I buy.

I would be using this plugin for a community association. They need it to:

1. users will submit registration for free
2. user will have to activate account via email that is sent to them
3. website owner would like to be able to do a dump (in CSV or similar) of all members that includes names, passwords, other customized fields
4. password recovery feature
5. is there a newsletter, ezine type feature that website owner can email all members?

I know the plugin can do #1...but what about points 2, 3, 4, and 5?

I am a beginner at wordpress, so please respond in simple terms
