How do you send a mass email?
You can send a mass email from Gmail or Outlook for small, occasional batches, but both cap how many you can send per day and need a workaround to personalize each message. A dedicated desktop sender like Mass Mailing News personalizes every email, sends through your own SMTP, and has no daily cap beyond your provider’s.
Which way of sending mass email is right for you?
| Method | Best for | Sending limits | Personalization |
|---|---|---|---|
| Gmail (BCC or add-on) | Small, one-off sends | About 500/day (2,000 on Workspace) | Manual, or via an add-on |
| Outlook + Word mail merge | Windows users with a short list | Your mail provider’s limit | Mail-merge fields |
| Desktop sender (Mass Mailing News) | Regular personalized campaigns | Set by the SMTP you choose | Built-in mail-merge |
How do you send a mass email from Gmail?
For a handful of recipients you can put addresses in the BCC field so they don’t see each other. Beyond that, Gmail’s daily limit (about 500 on a free account, 2,000 on Workspace) and its lack of built-in mail-merge get in the way. A tool that uses your Gmail SMTP lets you personalize and send properly within those limits.
How do you send a mass email in Outlook?
Outlook can send personalized mass email through Word’s mail-merge feature: write your message in Word, connect a contact list from Excel, and merge to email. It works for short lists, but it is fiddly, offers no tracking, and is bound by your mail provider’s daily send limit — which is why many people move to a dedicated sender.
How do you send an email to multiple recipients individually?
Don’t put everyone in the To or CC field — that exposes addresses and looks like spam. Instead use mail-merge, which sends each person their own separate copy with their name and details filled in. Mass Mailing News does this automatically from your contact list, as shown in its message editor below.
How do you send bulk email with Mass Mailing News?
It takes four steps, from importing your list to sending or scheduling the campaign.
