How can I send a personalized mass email with the mail app?

I need to be able to send a mass email where the "Dear So-and-so" is personalized for each recipient. Is it possible to do this with Mail? If so, how can I accomplish that?

you'll have to use a feature called "Mail Merge"
it works with either MS Word + Outlook

or
Pages + Mail

  • My rMBP won't fetch emails with the mail app on it's own?

    I have a hotmail and yahoo account synced with the mail app but anytime i get an email, i have to manually fetch to be able to see them. All other notifications such as facebook and twitter fetch automatically and on sync time-wise. Does anyone know why i would be having this problem with mail?

    From the Mail menu bar, select
    Mail ▹ Preferences ▹ Accounts ▹ Advanced
    and check the box marked
    Include when automatically checking for new messages
    Repeat for each account.

    The iPad's Mail app has no provisions for creating groups. However, you can use a third party app that many users recommend.

    Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
    Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts   Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

    I have a  macbook, an ipad, and an iphone with the Mail app on all three synced through icloud, but when I read and delete emails on my phone, the inbox on my ipad is not update, so I have to go through and mark as read or delete messages again. How can I sync my iphone and ipad? (it seems like each is synced only to my laptop, so don't synchronize until I go home and use my laptop.

    POP: yahoo, aol, comcast/time warnder/road runner
    Imap: google, hotmail, and more including icloud.
    If you want to use multiple devices - move to imap, I would even say "exchange", but Google does not support free exchange anymore, since January of that year. So Ironically  Icloud or Hotmail would be my choices right now.
    To find out more about what happens to you, search on Google "difference between pop and imap"

  • How to enlarge when composing an email within the Mail app?

    How to zoom-in (enlarge, make look bigger) when composing an email in the Mail app?
    I am not interested in changing the resolution (which I am happy with).  For the most part I can just use Command and the "+" key when I cannot see something to enlarge the font, especially that of web pages.  This is also valid for reading incoming emails in the Mail app, too.  However, when I compose emails this functionality does not work.  I know I can actually increase the font but then I have to remember to decrease it before sending it (ridiculous step which one can easily forget about).  I know I can also transfer into Notes or Word but this is just extra unnecessary work.
    Is there a solution to this, so that I can only rely on the Mail application?
    Many thanks in advance!

    Howdy Lavi,
    It sounds as if what you want to do can be accomplished by using the Zoom control, one of the Mac operating system's Accessibility features. Using it you can quickly and easily make content either on the entire screen or just a small window larger and easier to see without affecting how the screen resolution or how the email will look when it is sent. See this article for Accessibility features -
    OS X Mavericks: Use accessibility features
    This article explains how to set up Zoom in System Preferences -
    OS X Mavericks: Zoom pane of Accessibility preferences
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Best,

  • TS3899 When sending email from the Mail App or through other Apps, my default From: address will change when I enter a To: address.  This sometimes leads me to send the email from the wrong outgoing email account.  It is frustrating and poor design.

    When sending email from the Mail App or through other Apps on my iPad, my default From: address will change when I enter a To: address.  This sometimes leads me to send the email from the wrong outgoing email account.  It is frustrating and poor design, especially since I had already checked the From: address.
    iPad 4 running iOS 8.1.3

    3rd party email addresses have to be deleted on every synmced mac product, although I have 1and1.co.uk and my imac updatetes the mails in that account from mac mail.
    Yahoo etc is a 2 step deleting process but good to get your emails pushed when on the go.

  • How can we handle browser settings while dealing with the security ?

    Hi ,
    how can we handle browser settings while dealing with the security ?When we configured security in web.xml , during the first request the container is asking for the authentication credentials once they are provided it go's on. but when the user gives a fresh request from the second window within the same browser that time it is not asking for authentication. How can we overcome this.Is there anything to do with server configurations?
    How can we make the container no to keep the things or act like session?

    Ya... I am taking a small example need not happen always but a kind of possibility i am thinking off.
    once the user sign out and just left without closing the browser and a friend (suppose not a good friend ... just kidding...) of that user may open the same jsp or file .This time the security is breached. If that feature or property exists....
    I know what you might say ... the user will log-out before leaving where a programer might invalidate the session at the time of log out.
    Consider the case of a bad Programing or just a programer might forget to invalidate,At that time as a application administrator how can he solve that issue.
    Thanks.......

    I just purchased an iTunes TV show and it successfully downloaded. It is now saying that I do not have the proper version of QuickTime on this version of iTunes (10.6.3).
    How can a show I purchased be incompatible with the latest version of iTunes?
    I want a refund, but I can't even figure out how to request one through support. Super frustrated and long time Apple customer.

    After a day of trying, both iTunes and my Apple TV are telling me that the episodes of Scooby Doo I purchased are incompatible due to QuickTime. I still don't understand how I purchased something from iTunes that doesn't work with iTunes.
    the exact error I receive when I try to play an episode is the following:
    "This movie requires QuickTime, which is not supported by this version of iTunes."
    Any advice would be great!

    Try using VLC or installing both QuickTime 7 and Perian. Nothing will work with all AVIs; some of them require codecs not available for Mac OS X.

  • How can I get "IMAQ Line Fit" stable (with the same points)

    How can I get "IMAQ Line Fit" stable (with the same points)
    I my vision applications I use a lot off times "IMAQ Line Fit"
    some times the results are not Stable.
    See vi and word document attached.
    When I take the same points but in a other order (sort)
    then suddenly all points are used.
    In this case I was looking for a edge in vertical direction (Y).
    I found the points but "IMAQ Line Fit" did not function well.
    I tried changing all settings like pixel radius and minimum score and
    also threshold and so on. But no result.
    Then I sorted the points reversed and that worked. See vi.
    I use labview Labview 8.6.0 and IMAQ machine vision.
    Maybe this problem is solved in a newer version.
    Please let me know.
    Thanks

    Thank You for your reaction Hossein,
    This "one application" uses "Line fit" about 20 000 000 times a day.
    about 200 will go wrong. With your setting the the "Line fit" for this occasion will work but others will go wrong.
    A algorithm should be:
    1e Stable, when using the same points and settings the result MUST be the same. How the points are sorted should not matter.
    2e Accuracy
    3e Speed
    4e Testing. Is very difficult but al least close points and the same points and sorting ... should be done
    NI now as made a " IMAQ Line Fit" Problem CAR (Corrective Action request) 298016.
    so in the future there will be a update.
    In the mean while a made a line fit which uses Bisquare option from Linear Fit.vi :
      from C:\Program Files\National Instruments\LabVIEW 8.6\vi.lib\analysis\6fits.llb
    This is a temporary fix because "IMAQ Fit Line VI" is not so stable.
    Because outliers should be rejected only Bisquare does this reasonable.
    This program does NOT USE "Minimum Score" and "Pixel Radius"
    Valid fit = When there are enough points within Outlier_Distance.
    Algorithm steps:
    - Determine if line is more horizontal then vertical, Compare DeltaX with DeltaY
    - If DeltaX <= DeltaY then SWAP X Y and later Swap back
    - Sort Points at on X value
    - First : Bisquare Linear Fit
    - Calculate distances to the found line for all points
    - Inliers: Points within Outlier_distance
    - Outliers: Points outside Outlier_Distance
    - Only use Inlier Points
    - Check again if DeltaX < DeltaY then SWAP X Y later SWAP back again
    - Second : Bisquare Linear Fit only with the Inlier Points
    - Results are from the second fit
    Warning : This Program is Not so accurate and Not so fast
    See attachments it is in labview 8.6
    If some has a improvement please let me know.
    Thanks

    PLEASE help!! I use Outlook for my email and the Mail App Icon that is in my dock, that I know nothing about, was also storing all my emails. So, I tried to delete ONLY the emails in the Mail App but somehow (under Preferences maybe?) I also deleted ALL my OUTLOOK emails in my inbox.  Can someone please please tell me if there is a way to get my Outlook inbox emails back OR EVEN the emails that were in my Mail app - because even tho I never use the Mail app, at least the emails would be there.
    When I was trying to delete the emails in my inbox for the Mail app - I followed THESE directions.  It did in fact clear my inbox for the Mail app.  But then I went to log on to my Outlook account and EVERY SINGLE EMAIL was gone.  And not in the Deleted box.  Just gone.  Here are the directions I followed that screwed everything up.  Please help.
    Top menu bar, Mail > Preferences > Accounts > Mailbox Behaviors.
    Uncheck "Store deleted messages on the server".
    At the drop list for "Permanently erase deleted messages when", choose "Quitting Mail".
    Next...
    Top menu bar, Mail > Preferences > General.
    At "When searching all mailboxes, include results from", uncheck "Trash".
    Select All = command A

    i found out my prob!
    here is what you do.
    go to the "system preferences" on your dock.
    click "software updates".
    click "installed software"
    if it shows something about a recent update about "EFI UPDATE, FIRMWARE, THUNDERBOLT" or anything like that, exit out of it.
    go to mail.
    click "mail" at the top.
    click "preferences...".
    find the account you are having trouble with, once you do, make sure its highlighted, then click the "-" at the bottom of the window (this will only effect that mail account, it will not effect your ical weather or not its synced thought that email account)
    hit the "+" (right next to the "-") and add your accout back!
    its something with that update that effected mail, i hope this works out for you, if not reply back
