Mail Merge
Mail Merge is a powerful tool for writing and sending a personalized letter or e-mail to
many different people at the same time. You can also use it to create envelopes or
labels with each recipient' information. Mail Merge imports data from another source
such as Excel and then uses that data to replace placeholders throughout your
message with the relevant information for each individual you are messaging. You
can use it to quickly create personalized messages for hundreds of people at once.
