I'm starting up a not for profit organisation and have a lot of email and mail addys of people interested. At the moment, they are all stored in Yahoo! but Yahoo! does not allow me to send a newsletter to more than a handful of people at a time due to spam concerns. I am wondering if anyone here either works with address databases and newsletters or manages such a system?

I need:

-The facility to compose a newsletter easily

-A good database which includes all categories, inc email, phone and mail addresses

-A system which will allow me to send the newsletter to everyone, regardless of the amount of emails

I'd really like to start off as I intend to go on so any advice would be much appreciated. Incidentally, I don't have Outlook Express. I deleted it thinking that Yahoo! would be sufficient! PS. the solution has to be easy cos I am useless when it comes to technology!

Outlook Express comes standard with Windows so you should be able to reinsatll from your Windows CD.

For your mailing database you could use a number of things. Assuming you already have Microsoft Office you will already have Word and Excel. You can put all your addresses in either Word or Excel, then use the Word MailMerge function to create a single mailshot for each person.

Alternatively you could use MS Access - but this isn't included in the basic version of MS Office, so it will involve some expenditure if you don't already have it.
