You can personalize the messages and if you have profiles you will be able to use direct marketing.
We have a journalist community that was a Yahoo group. I built a website in CF and now run the news letters through it. http://www.blueear.com We have profiles for each member and the news letters are addressed to each. >From there profiles we can tell if they are into sports or computers. Then the advertisers we sell for the newsletter are directed to a mermbers profile.

All the names are already in outlook. People will not be signing up for this as this is pretty much a closed distribution list. Is there any reason to use cf instead of outlook for this? -- glm ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------- This message is for the named person's use only.
