Can I automate the process of sending seven emails to one person?

Outlook 2003. As an IT tutor, I have to send 7 messages to students before
their email exam, so that they can respond in various ways.

My mails are in msg format and, to date, I have been sending the 7 messages
to each student one by one. It works, but....labourious.

Is there some way to automate this process in Outlook?.....so that I would
just have to enter a students address once and Outlook would append the
address to each mail and send it?

As an alternative, does anyone know of any freeware/shareware software that
could do this?

Not sure from your description exactly what you want, but perhaps, you
should 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.

Thanks for that, I’ve had a look at the software and it’s nearly there, but
not quite.

Like many other bulk email programs, it seems really designed to send one
message to many people. I’m doing the opposite….sending many messages to one
person.

An Outlook msg file contains the subject, the message text and any
attachments you may be including. All you have to do is, open the msg file,
add the recipients email address, hit Send/Receive.

But, of course, you have to carry out these actions for each email you want
to send.

I’m looking for a way of automating the process, so that I just have enter
an email address once (somewhere), then, the program would append that
address to all my msg files and do the Send/Receive action automatically.
