Individual Recipient Name/email at end of Distribution List
I have created a distribution list for an organization. The list's name is
entered in the "Bcc" field and the organization (referring back to me) is the "To" field. At the end of an email to the contacts in this list, I would like to include the specific person's name/email such as "You are subscribed as " as well as unsubscribe information. The list is fairly long and I don't want to type this message at the end of each individual's mail. Is there a way to accomplish this? Thanks for the help. |

Not with a distribution list. What you want to do requires a mail merge to
electronic mail, which requires a database to which to merge such as a Contacts Folder, Excel file, or Access database. -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "Ray" wrote in message ...
