Default E-mail database

So then I would make 1500 different contacts, one for each of the email
addresses?



IMO, a database is by far the most flexible place to keep information like
this. But only if you know what you are doing. e.g. you need to know what
"select" and in particular "select distinct" means. If you don't and can't
pay someone who does, put them in Outlook instead.

Default E-mail database

There's a lots of functionality in Contacts. Learn to use the Phone List
View, Group By Box and Field Chooser. These are all on the Advanced Toolbar.

You can make your own fields, mailmerge to specific groups of people - all
sorts of stuff.

I hope this helps you at least a little bit!
