Mail Merge from an Email - New Outlook
Hello All,
There have been some slight changes to Mail Merge in New Outlook; for example, the To line is now Recipient. Also, I discovered some limitations to using contact or distribution lists with Mail Merge in New Outlook and provided helpful suggestions for not having a personalized salutation.
The details are captured in my detailed blog post and video.

kellyhammerleI'm sure you've already figured it out, but to use this feature,
1) Start a new email message.
2) Enter all the email addresses in the "To" field.
3) Enter your subject and email message.
*Unfortunately, you can't personalize the email.
4) Click the down arrow next to "Send".
5) Select "Start mail merge".
6) Select "Send Mail merge".
It will now send the same message, but individually to each of your recipients.
Unfortunately, BCC is not an option for many, we need separate emails in the outbox or need to customize the subject for each recipient. This new iteration is terrible.
