Pasting emails into Entourage

P

Trying to send a big email to a bunch of people who didn't get hard
copies of my lecture at a conference recently. The list is big
(200-ish) and when I copy it from Word it won't paste into Entourage.

Any ideas on why?

Thanks,
Phillip

Options for sending from Word are "Send to Mail Recipient (HTML)" and Œmail
merge to email¹. For more info see Word 2004 Help

More on sending out complex HTML messages.

Hi Phillip!

Can you elaborate on what happens when you try?

You might want to try using Word's File --> Send To --> Mail Recipient
(as HTML) or (as Attachment).

Hope this helps! bill

Do you mean that the list of *recipients* won't paste into Entourage?

Make sure they're separated with commas or carriage returns, and that
they're all in a valid format. I recommend addresses-only.

I also recommend you use BCC, and create an Address Book Group for so many
entries. You may also want to check with your provider to give them the
heads-up that you'll be sending an email to so many recipients.
