Mail Merge in iNotes 8.5.1

Hello

Does anyone know how a Mail Merge can be sent from Lotus iNotes? I want to send personalized emails to over 100 recipients (possibly using Microsoft Word Mail Merge…)

Any feedback is greatly appreciated!!

Cheers

Fabia

Subject: iNotes mail merge instructions…

If you specifically want to perform a mail merge from the iNotes web client, then I have only seen it possible using a 3rd party add-on called Print Merge Reporter.

http://www.notesmail.com/PrintMergeReporter

Basically, the product requires you to copy 2 design elements (1 folder and 1 view) provided by vendor into a specific mailbox (or mailbox template). It also requires Word 2000 or higher installed on the Domino Windows server. Install Word 2000 if possible to keep it simple. :slight_smile:

You can then either (1) Add an iNotes QuickLink to the user’s Welcome Page Layout, and/or (2) Email the web link to each user requiring iNotes mail merging.

i.e. http://MyMailServer/PrintMe.nsf/iNotes

Subject: How about from the Lotus Notes Client?

I wrote a freeware/donationware app named “Zephyr” that does this very thing… in the Lotus Notes Client.

That URL will take you to a demo video showing you how you can create an “Email Template” and submit “Job Documents” from your Personal Address Book via a custom Agent.

While not available online or specific to iNotes, it might very well address your needs.

HTH,
