The Excel Batch-Email Manager sends individual emails to multiple addresses based on lists of email addresses and related data on your Excel worksheet. Email can be sent in both plain text and HTML mail formats (at the same time!)
To get started, all you need is a list of email addresses on a worksheet & the text or HTML of the email you want to send.
Download this add-in for a free trial, which allows you to try before you buy. You can use the trial to test in your environment for a limited time. When you purchase, you’ll then use your product key to unlock the trial to the full version.
