Hi,

My dad recently asked me if i could give him a hand in doing something that would allow his company to send an email to all of his customers in one go (possibly storing all thier emails in a spreadsheet?).

I myself have a limited knowledge of mail merging and dont have a clue of how i can go about it or what programs i might need (other than outlook express) to do this.

Can anyone help please?

do you mean mail application based or newsletter like? if it's a newsletter you can have your server send mail to everyone in a certain MySQL table or something

"select mail from list where type='client'"

then have your server send it to them with a script.

But on desktop level (outlook etc) I have NO idea

sorry

cant you classify your contacts then you have the choice to send a message to all members of that classification?
