Fast Batch Email Replies

As an editor for a few newsletters, I write to readers who write or complete feedback surveys. One of the newsletters gets several hundreds of responses with every issue. If that sounds overwhelming, the first issue alone got over 1000 responses! I use a few methods for handling large email jobs and use whichever depending on the mood. The first one we’ll cover is … (ba da bing!) Word merge.

    I’m not sure I follow you, M. Judging from the fact that we’re setting up a batch run as reply, the responses are not personalized, right? (By that I mean specifically responding to the content of each individual message. I guess you could “personalize” them in the scope of “Dear [Name]“.)

    If the responses are generic (form) then why not just set up a batch atuo-reply through the mail server?
