Mail merge from MS Word

[oneworld95]

Hi. We're going to be creating a Word document that will contain mail merge letters that we'd like to email to people using Zimbra. The users don't have Outlook; just Zimbra Collab Suite access from Firefox.

Is there a better way to accomplish this? We have the data in an Excel spreadsheet of name/email, and we'd like to generate and send emails to all the records in the spreadsheet using a template email letter, saying something like "Hello, Ms. _________, Thank you for such and such."

Thanks.

did you find any answer to your question related mail merge?

From what I discovered searching on Google, Zimbra doesn't support mail merge directly. However, using either Outlook or the free Thunderbird mail program, you can do mail merges.

I really need this information before we really start to use Zimbra.
