I'm using MS Office 2003 on both Windows XP Home and Windows 7.

I have a list of client email addresses in an Excel spreadsheet. I want to be able to send various email messages to this list, preferably each mssg would be personalized with their name, but if that's difficult to do then I can do it with a generic greeting. I'm having trouble finding a way to do this, other than importing all into Outlook or using Word mail merge, which I'd rather not do.

Can anyone suggest a way to do this directly from Excel?
