Email mail merge is highly requested. I made a video on how to do an email mail merge on January 2, 2017. I figured it was time for a refresh on this topic. Let me know if you have any questions. Thank you!
Can you please make a video how to do the same mail merge concept via VBA program as it's helpful ...bcos mail merge send emails automatically but it won't display
How to do change an email address sender. I am using bunch of email but we are using a shared/group email address. Not our personal email account. Any suggestion?
Thank you, Chris. I watched that video and understand it. But my question is a bit more specific...I seem to be able to use email merge thru WORD, Outlook, Office 365 and One Drive For Home. I'm trying to do the same thru my company using all the same programs except I use One Drive For Business there. Any tips?
I rarely have to mail merge so when the time comes around, I ALWAYS need a refresher!! I feel like an idiot asking coworkers, this video is hands down the most simplified, uncomplicated, to the point video I've ran across yet! Everything needed all within a few minutes, THANK YOU!!!!!!
I knew how to mail merge but not how to send it through Outlook. Your information was easy to follow. I truly appreciate you adding the instructions for changing the email account that it comes from. That was a game changer for me! Thank you!
Chris, thank you so much! This has been a huge help for me in my job as an Account Manager running monthly newsletters to customers. Really appreciate your quality videos, keep them coming!
This was superhelpful! I just did my first mail merge and I watched your video 2x to make sure. So far, it looks like it's all working great. Thank you so much.
Thank you so much for this fantastic video! Your step-by-step explanation of the process so easy. I spent more time trying to find tutorials than it took to actually watch and execute the email merge! LOL I'm so glad I found you! I've subscribed.
May I ask another question? Do you have a video on MS Forms? and how to send them off after creating so it’s not opening a persons Office program, but opens right to the form? Or, can you make one? LOL
Really like your videos. No fluff, just a simple step by step that is easy to follow. I have been trying to send out mail merge emails. The first three work fine and then it stops. If I go into the edit recipients list and uncheck these first three, then the rest will work. Suggestions?
Hi Chris, thanks for a straight forward easy follow tutorial. I am pretty new to tech stuff so I have one question: Can you still add a file/attachment and send it to all as well?
Thank you, Chris! It worked perfectly for me by watching your video. Is there any assistance in sending emails with different attachments to different recipients
This is great Chris thanks, until it gets to the point in Word where I get the circle of doom in Word. Any tips on what i need to do other than start over gain?
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 😆 35-year-old double majoring environmental activist, college student, and intern JUST DID HER FIRST CAMPAIGN MAIL MERGE FOR THE 30x30 NAT GEO EVENT, BABY!!!!! WOOOOOOO SHEET that feels good 😎
Hi Chris, enjoyed the video! I have a question: if I've added two email accounts to Outlook, is there an option to choose which email address the mail will be sent from?
Thank you for this tutorial. This is fantastic. Using email mail merge, can I send emails in Outlook on behalf of someone else that has given me access to send emails on their behalf?
I don't believe that is possible. I think it will show coming from you. What you could test is to do a MM with one email. Make the email your personal email to see what shows when you receive it.
Hi Chris, Firstly thank you for making this Vid, Its excellent. Couple of things, 1/ I am using a mac, and ended up not having OUTLOOK as default so it didn't show up the Email Merge, :0) that sorted now. When I did do the merge the emails went to draft, I noticed that there was no email address showing, I may have formatted the file poorly, Its an XML I did select the correct column though. Do these need to be CSV or or some other format, Just need to get past this part and Im off and running. Thanks again for your time, Cheers. Malcolm
How about if I want cc and/or bcc to some recipients or to all recipients. I wonder why Word and Excel 365 still does not have this feature while some guys out there already created add ins, vba, etc.
I am trying to figure out how to delay delivery or schedule delivery for a mail merge- all the tutorials I find have a merge and send option in their outlook, I do not and also I have tried to add a schedule date column but the merge ignored it. Can you help?
Thank you Chris - so helpful! Q: If I have more than one email box I "send" from, is there a way to specify which mailbox to send the merged emails from? Thank you!
I'm in the same boat I have multiple email accounts in Outlook desktop. You have to change the default email account. I'll make a video on it this weekend.
Did a mail merge and it clumped the email in 1 paragraph. The paragraphs from word and when it sends as an email is not recognized. I spaced it for 3 paragraphs and only 1 paragaraph shows on email sent.
I am an author wanting to use email merge to send Query letters to potential literary agents, but I do not use Excel. Can I use a list I just made up, or one from my contacts?
Hi Chris, thanks for sharing this, is really helpful. A question I have is it possible to mail merge delayed emails? what I mean is using the merge tool but not sending them right way but scheduling them for the next day or so. Thanks.
I get a pop for each email saying I have to approve each one. I've turned off all security and it still makes me approve each one which is obviously time prohibitive. What settings to do use to prevent that?
Great! Good diction and speech. I experience an anomaly inserting a logo on top of the word document. The recipient(s) receive the blast with the picture duplicated. Once on top of the message as I intended and a duplicate at the bottom of the message.. ... An test email sent from Outlook, outside of the mail merge feature of word did not give me any problem. I tried with every picture format and I got the same undocumented feature...
Hi Chris, can you add a signature? If new emails get a signature by default is it added by Outlook as part of the email merge or do you need to include it in the Word source text?
Hi Chris. Your video was very clear. To be safe I did an initial test email to two email addresses that come to me. Outlook shows that they were sent but they are not coming into either inbox. Should I trust that they were sent and go ahead and send to my "real" email list?
Quick question! I have multiple mailboxes in outlook. How can I indicate and check that the email will send from the right account? Thank you for this fantastic video! I watched 5 different ones today, and this was the only one I found to be helpful enough to get me to the "ready to send" stage. :)
How can I choose my outlook email id, in case I have multiple email id added in my outlook. .. I want to send email from a one specific email id only, from my multiple id's.
It will send from the default mailbox. Make the Shared Mailbox your default mailbox. I have a video on making an Outlook email the default. chrismenardtraining.com/post/mail-merge-how-to-change-default-sending-account-in-outlook
I have a list of emails. Each recipient is required to teach on a given day per month. I wish to send automatic emails reminders 4 weeks, 3 weeks, 2 weeks, and one week prior to the date they Are due to teach. Can you do it? How please?
Hi, I know this video is from a log time ago, so hope someone reads this and knows the answer. Can you specify which mailbox outlook will use to send the emails if you have more than one mailbox?

Glad to help. I know how you feel. I hate to ask my coworkers also how to do stuff.
I can't believe in all my years in the workforce, I've never had to do a mail merge. Thank goodness to UA-cam and this video in particular.

You're very welcome!
Chris, this was a great tutorial. I need to cc a different individual for each email recipient. I appreciate your help!
That can't be done with the default setting. You would need a third-party app to do that.
I have used this video so many times, for work, thank you so much!
I want to do a cc: on every email. What is the process for that?
Vandelay Industries! I caught that!

Hi Chris, enjoyed the video! I have a question: if I've added two email accounts to Outlook, is there an option to choose which email address the mail will be sent from?
Thanks. Can you send emails for specific contact in an excelsheet? Let's say sending emails to contacts in a specific city
amazing !
Thank you.

Hi Cris ,
Thank you for this email . I followed all steps but not working for me
This was very helpful, thank you! One question, how can I CC someone on these messages?
That would require a third-party app.
Thank you for the video. How do I get personalized links from my excel sheet to be hyperlinked in the mail merge email?
By default, that can't be done with a Mail Merge. You can add the url, but they aren't hyperlinks. It drive me crazy, but that is how it works.
How about if I want cc and/or bcc to some recipients or to all recipients. I wonder why Word and Excel 365 still does not have this feature while some guys out there already created add ins, vba, etc.
Great tutorial. i wanted to know if i would like to cc someone in the same email. how can we do that.
Excellent!!
Many thanks!

I followed your steps to the letter, both on Thursday and today. None of the emails went out, and none are showing in my sent folder. Any ideas?
I followed the video but I can’t find them in my sent folder. It showed them going out though. Where should I look?
Can we personalize the subject like organisation name and country name of each clint?
Can you add a link within the body of the email?
Thank you Chris - so helpful! Q: If I have more than one email box I "send" from, is there a way to specify which mailbox to send the merged emails from? Thank you!

Is it possible to have different topic for each mail?
In the body of the email yes, but if you are asking about the subject line, no. There are third party apps that allow different subject lines.
