Bulk email sending

Is there any way that Outlook can automatically split large number of
outgoing emails into smaller groups. For example - I have an email
distribution list of 350. Due to allowances by my ISP (Virgin Media), it
seems that my distribution list can appear to be spamming. Pocomail
automatically splits a large addressed email into emails sent to 50 people at
a time.
i would like to do the same in Outlook 2007, without splitting my
distribution list into many distribution lists.
Is anyone aware of a plug in that would allow me to this?
TIA
Gary

I'm not aware of such a tool but instead of creating unusable mass mail
distribution lists, consider using Categories. You can then easily do a Mail
Merge based on that category.

Note that your ISP can still consider you a spammer and/or that you can
still break the guidelines set by the ISP. It's not only about how many
people you address in a single mail but also how often you send emails and
how much traffic you generate on their mail server.

Some form of sending individual emails is the way to go. Either try mail
merge (as suggested by Roady) or try our email scheduler
(http://www.repeatmail.com) which will allow you to send multiple individual
emails, html or plain text, with attachments, either as a one-off or
regularly at a specified time and interval. The recipients list can be drawn
from your Outlook Contacts, a plain text file,database or spreadsheet. You
can also specify the interval between each send to avoid triggering any spam
limits on your account.
