Free Bulk Mailer needed

[Datura]

Hi,

I am looking for a free bulk mailer for the SO to use. I have tried a few I found online but they all include signatures or a link (advertising). All she really needs to do is email about 80 pretty much generic emails (except for the names of course) from Outlook. I would automate a process for her but don't really have the time at the moment. If anyone knows of a good free tool that can do this, it would be much appreciated.

Cheers,
Dat

Nada? Really don't feel like automating something...

Check out mailchimp. You can use it via Google Apps as well, it's got a lot of features.

Microsoft outlook can do it, you just need to make a group with all the emails you want. Label it whatever, sort out the email and click send.

Depends what she is sending out... we really don't want to help increase spam?

What's it for?

 

[Datura]

She wants each one to be sent out separately and not as one grouped mail. It isn't spam, it is for her work. All she needs is for each email to say dear xxx1 and dear xxx2 etc with the same body in all the mails.

Checking out mailchimp. Ta

I see, all is forgiven

Mailchimp isn't exactly what I want. Busy automating something...

80 a day or 80 every now and again? Just use MSWord mailmerge. Keep the list of e-mails on an excel spreadsheet. Done.

Yup Mailmerge works like a treat. Simple, easy managable

 

[Datura]

Wow, thanks. That does exactly what she needs. She sends off 80 about once a week.
