What do you mean by usable? The extension exists since almost 10 years 
an has always been properly maintained by someone. Currently there is no 
official version for 6.2.x but you can get a working one from git.typo3.org:

git://git.typo3.org/TYPO3CMS/Extensions/direct_mail.git

Maybe there are still some glitches after the update to 6.2 style but if 
noone tests they wont be found :)

Regarding user registration: Either use sr_feuser_register or alike or 
knit your own using EXT:formhandler


greetings,
Bernhard
