importing them into exchange gal would be a nightmare. a list server or mail
application designed for sending mass mail would be a much better option.

Honestly, if price isn't an issue, I'd buy a copy of Exchange and make all
the contacts Custom Recipients (if that's still the term) in the Global
Address list. You could then set up a locked down distribution list, and
even a custom method for users to unsubscribe.

Conversely, you could really use any sort of server based LISTSERV type
program.

Personally, I don't think Outlook is really designed for a newsletter type
spam system. Sure you can shoehorn it in there, but, you can shoehorn a
database into Excel too, but, it should really be done in SQL Server (or
access).
