Default Bulk Mailings

I have a small bussiness that requires me to send out almost 5000 emails at a
time. Will Outlook 2007 be able to handle this task?

It will be slow. A mailing service or a program installed locally that
bypasses outlook would be faster.

Certainly - your ISP probably not. You need to check with them that they
will be happy with this.

Some form of sending individual emails is the way to go. Either try mail
merge (look it up in the help) or try our email scheduler
(http://www.repeatmail.com) which will allow you to send multiple individual
emails, html or plain text, with attachments, either as a one-off or
regularly at a specified time and interval. The recipients list can be drawn
from your Outlook Contacts, a plain text file,database or spreadsheet. It
also allows you to specify the interval between each send so as to avoid
triggering any spam limits on your account. Outlook is not needed to send.
Your machine needs to be switched on, but you don't even have to be logged
in. Works with Win 98/XP/2003/Vista
