Default Using multiple recipients for one message in Merge

Dear all,

Situation:

I want to send 30 emails.
I use MS Excel as a database to fill the fields in my template message.
Fields are: First name, sex, content message, email address

Some of the 30 messages have to go to 1 recipient.
Others have to go to 2 recipients.

I have tried to add a second email address to the column "email address" in MS Excel with a semicolon, e.g. "john@123.com; sarah@123.com".
When finalising the Merge in MS Word, this produces an error. I am informed that Outlook "does not recognize john@123.com; sarah@123.com as an email address.

Can you maybe help me with this issue, either by directing me to an existing thread or by giving me instructions how to solve this problem?

Many thanks in advance, I hope the situation is clearly phrased like this.

Best,
Thomas
