Hello Listers, We're looking for better way to email customized messages directly from the HPe3000 (937, MPE 5.5 PP7) to a group of 600-700 addresses at a time. Applications are COBOL, running against TurboImage databases. Currently producing letters which are snail-mailed to one or 2 persons each. When we wish to do a 'bulk' emailing, we extract the email addresses along with the person's name from our mailing database, create a flat file and download to a Mac, where it is cut-and-pasted into Eudora for emailing. This will seem 'hokey' to some, but since it is infrequently used, works just fine for us. A new project requires that the text of each message be customized with names, addresses, status, etc. so I am looking into NetMail 3000, for one, as a better solution. 1) Any advice as to ease of use/cost? 2) What do I need, hardware-wise on the 3000? It has a LAN card - 10-base T, with a few PC's on it. This is connected via hub to a Mac network, which has Internet access. Thanks for your responses, Connie Connie Sellitto Cat Fanciers' Association, Inc. World's Largest Pedigreed Cat Registry
