You don’t NEED a mailing list for a newsletter however if you develop a list you can send the newsletter to them.
There are other ways of making your newsletter available without a list or even a website. For example if your convert it into a pdf using something like open office dot org which is free you can then upload it to scribd or docstock.
Then via forums,Twitter, Sb sites etc you can make posts and pint to the document on line. This has a viral effect as some people will download the document and then share it with others. Within the newsletter you can place a link to a sign up page and you will build a list.
I found this approach to be more effective than what is known as a squeeze page. The reality is people are tired of signing up for everything. Making it freely available takes away the pressure AND anyone who then chooses to sign up to receive it on a regular basis will be much more responsive to any offers you make as a degree of trust/credibility exists
I cover this sort of stuff in MY newsletter..
