Hi, I've a suggestion: to make easy for the account manager to fill the body with right tags without remembering them, you could use in your HTML page a textarea with some buttons that, in their "onClick" event manager, call a JavaScript function that appends the tag string to the area-field value.

I have a bunch of email address that I need to send emails, regularly. Something like a mailing list. More specifically a one way mailing list (or information dissemination list). The email should be customized with the person's name, etc. The person's details could either be stored in a database (or in an excel spreadsheet). I suppose I'd need to write an application to support the customized email. Or maybe not if someone has better ideas. Please remember the email text could change for every newsletter. I think I've a general idea (let me know if this is how it should be done): An account manager uses a webpage to write up the body. And uses home-grown tags at certain places in the body (such as <person_name>, where the recepient's name ought to appear). This goes to the webserver which parses the email, queries the DB, plugs in the required info, and then sends out the email to the bunch of email address. Ofcourse, the marketing dept, or whoever writes up the emails ought to know the tag names. Has anyone done this? If someone could provide some tips or point me in the right direction, I'd appreciate it.
