Thank you. &nbsp;I signed up for a free account, and uploaded the Email list. &nbsp;Mailchimp declined to send the campaign unless I have the recipients opt in by contacting them outside of Mailchimp. &nbsp;The recipients on that list are all past guests, who furnished those addresses during the process of making a reservation at our B&amp;B. &nbsp; <br />
<br />
However, Constant Comment has a more liberal policy. &nbsp;They just ask the sender to verify that the recipients have connected with the sender's business through a prior transaction. &nbsp;So I used that service, and it worked fine. &nbsp;<br />

Thank you for recommending a 3rd party solution.

I'm not into mass marketing campaigns. &nbsp;However, I have a list with around 1200 Email addresses belonging to previous guests at our bed and breakfast over the past fifteen years. &nbsp;I'd like to send them an Email with a coupon for a discounted stay, if they choose to return to our establishment. &nbsp; My Email client is Outlook 2007. &nbsp;The Email addresses presently reside in a Microsoft Works 2000 database, but I think they could be easily copied to another type of file. &nbsp;I'd appreciate guidance with this project.

Productivity software is application software dedicated to producing information, such as documents, presentations, worksheets, databases, charts, graphs, digital paintings, electronic music and digital video. Most common programs and suites such as Microsoft Office and LibreOffice have their own topics. Office suites, which brought word processing, spreadsheet, and relational database programs to the desktop in the 1980s, are the core example of productivity software, but they can include communications software, personal information managers, groupware and log analysis software.

Productivity Apps

Office Productivity refers both to the act of being productive and efficient in an office or professional environment, as well as the software applications used to "produce" information. This includes the development of professional skills, creating work processes, and almost any program used to create or modify a document, image, audio or video clip. However, business application suites such as Microsoft Office, which include word processing, spreadsheet and presentation programs, are typically called productivity software, as contrasted with a "utility program," such as a file manager, which is used to organize files and folders on the computer. Many office- and business-oriented groups of programs are organized into suites.

A contact manager in its most basic form is a software program that enables users to easily store and find contact information, such as names, addresses and telephone numbers. Sophisticated contact managers provide calendar sharing features and allow several people in a company to access the same database. Some contact management systems have evolved into customer relationship management (CRM) systems to analyze and plan for an organization’s interaction with current and future customers.
