Add an export function

The admin should be able to export all collected addresses.

Not sure how that should work seeing as you're not forced to use models with newsletter_subscription at all?

[sbaechler]

The export function would have to be within the ModelBackend. The user would then have to add an admin template which adds the export function.

You are also calling form.save() in the subscribe-method. This is basically assuming that there is a model.

On the other hand, why are you collecting newsletter addresses in the first place if there is no way to export them?

[matthiask]

Oops, that's correct. You are free to supply a save method for other forms as well, but this should be made the responsibility of the backend.

Regarding your last paragraph: What about automatic synchronization for example with mailchimp, cleverreach, whatever? Or maybe a custom backend which does not store the email addresses in a Django-controlled database in the first place, i.e. directly in a mailman store?
