Hi All,
Is there a way that we can personalise email templates in Outlook 2003? For example, in the e-mail template we want to have "Dear person'sname" rather than addressing everyone in the same way "Dear pariticpant". If there isnt a way, could anyone recommend how they are working around this issue? this is a really important feature that we require. Will outlook 2007 support personalised email templates? thankyou, Maria K. |

Ok, i dont think I made my requirements clear.
We need to create an email template that can be distributed to 40 people at once, but we want the email to be personalised to each of these people. How can we do this? thanks, Maria K Diane Poremsky [MVP] wrote: you need to use mail merge. -- Diane Poremsky [MVP - Outlook] Author, Teach Yourself Outlook 2003 in 24 Hours Coauthor, OneNote 2003 for Windows (Visual QuickStart Guide) Need Help with Common Tasks? http://www.outlook-tips.net/beginner/ Outlook 2007: http://www.slipstick.com/outlook/ol2007/ Outlook Tips: http://www.outlook-tips.net/ Outlook & Exchange Solutions Center: http://www.slipstick.com Subscribe to Exchange Messaging Outlook newsletter: "Maria" wrote in message oups.com...

Hi Maria,
What you are looking for is a third party add-in for Outlook which can help you send personalized mass emails. There are many add-ins for this purpose on the market. For example you can use Easy Mail Merge. You can find it at this link: http://www.emailaddressmanager.com/mail_merge.html "Maria" wrote in message oups.com...
