Mail Merge Toolkit is a powerful add-in for Microsoft Office extending the mail merging capabilities in Microsoft Outlook, Microsoft Word and Microsoft Publisher. This app allows you to realize really personalized mass mailing easily and efficiently by providing a set of requested and unique features:
Personalize email subject
As soon as you need to personalize part of message subject or the whole subject line, you need Mail Merge Toolkit. Insert data fields into the message subject, so that not only the contents of a message but also its subject is personalized.
As soon as Mail Merge Toolkit is installed, you can attach files to the message. Perform the mail merge the same way as you do it usually and click the “Mail Merge Toolkit” option on the last step of the “Step by step wizard” in Microsoft Word to specify the necessary attachments.
Mail Merge Toolkit offers a way to send personal attachments. You just need to specify the path to the file in a separate column in the data source (Excel spreadsheet, CSV, database, etc.) and enter the name of this field instead of the attachments in the Mail Merge Toolkit.
Microsoft Word Mail Merge allows you to personalize HTML messages, but what if you need to send it as a PDF? Try Mail Merge Toolkit, the only way to distribute a number of personalized PDF files with a few mouse clicks. You just need a select “PDF attachment” in the message format and fill in the text which will be displayed in the message body.

You do not need to ask your SharePoint Administrator to install something on the server and you do not need to allow the exporting of the list to a Microsoft Excel Spreadsheet. Just use the Mail Merge Toolkit to perform your mailing by getting the data from a known and constant source.

Frequently Asked Questions about mail merging add-in for Microsoft Outlook
Question: Every time I try to send a mail merge with a party CC'd it seems to add an additional CC to my mailmerge. Do you know if there is a way to correct this?
Answer: Our Mail Merge Outlook Toolkit software works as follows: according to the number or e-mail addresses in the "To:" field, Mail Merge Toolkit generates personal messages for every single recipient (as many messages as many recipients in the "To:" field), and then, places all those individual messages into Outlook Outbox. I.e. only "To:" field matters for generating single personal message. That means, if your original, "source" message contains addresses in the "CC" or "BCC" field - every message generated for a single "To:"-recipient will contain all these addresses in those secondary fields, so therefore a (blind) copy of every message sent to a single "To:"-recipient will be also sent to the secondary recipients (specified in "CC" and "BCC"). So, if you add e.g. 100 recipients into the "TO:" field, and a recipient into CC - your CC-recipient will get 100 message copies addressed to your 100 TO-recipients. This behaviour is correct. Therefore, we usually strongly recommend our customers to avoid using the "CC" or "BCC" fields if mail merge feature is used.
Question: Does Mail Merge Toolkit enable me to send individualized attachments in the mail merge, so that each email contains a different attachment?
Answer: Yes, Mail Merge Outlook Toolkit will help you attach to your personal messages unique attachments to unique recipients (or, also static files if you need). With Mail Merge Toolkit add-in, you can merge fields from different data bases, incl. Excel data files: all the opportunities of the native mail merge in Word are supported by our Mail Merge Toolkit since it is the extension of the regular Office Mail Merge feature. Its option appears in the last 6th step in Word, as an alternative towards the regular "Electronic Mail", if you follow Step by Step Mail Merge Wizard, and enables some additional features there. And you can send personalized attachments with this tool - a sample of such use with the Excel base is illustrated in this flash tutorial.
Question: Is there a way to send from a non-primary email address? I sent a test email, but there was no option to change the "From" field before sending.
Answer: Our mail merge tool does not provide any possibility to edit the From field. But if you have several accounts in Outlook, or if you have several mail profiles in your system - Mail Merge Toolkit will display profile or account selection dialogue: if you close Outlook before mailing (and do not use Outlook Contacts as data source) - you will get profile selection prior to account selection. You can test with a separate account, or also with a separate mail profile: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/829918. If you e.g. send through a POP3 account - Outlook will send message with the address specified as sender's address in your POP3 account settings. If you send using some specific Exchange feature (delegate access, or "send as", or "send on behalf") - your Exchange Server analyzes data in the From field, and processes it according to sender's permissions to send as the specified user. Please contact your mail server administrator for more details about usnig these features.
