ACT! makes it really easy to create a mail merge -- a mass personalised letter created for multiple contacts at once.

When you need to send a letter to more than one contact in your database, you can use the Mail Merge feature to send a template-based letter in one short procedure. By following the simple steps in the Mail Merge Wizard, you can write a single template-based letter to multiple contacts in an ACT! database. If you've used the mail merge features in other programs, you'll probably find that  the Mail Merge is much more user-friendly.

After performing a mail merge, you can have ACT! automatically create a history item in the Notes/History tab for each letter recipient. Just print the merged letter, and ACT! will prompt you to create a history for all contacts included in the mail merge.

Creating a history of a mass letter will put a line in the History tab for each letter recipient to remind you of the letter sent. Unlike histories created for single letters, you won't be able to double-click the mass letter history to open a copy of the sent letter.
