Add subject line to mail merge email

To add a subject line to a mail merge email, you can use the Subject field in your mail merge template. Here's an example of how you can do this:

Using Microsoft Word:

  1. Open your mail merge document in Microsoft Word.
  2. Go to the "Mailings" tab in the ribbon.
  3. Click on "Select Recipients" and choose your recipient list.
  4. Click on "Finish & Merge" and then "Step of 3" to merge the document.
  5. In the "Merge to New Document" dialog box, select "Edit Individual Documents" and then click "OK".
  6. In the merged document, you'll see a placeholder for the subject line. You can edit this placeholder to add your subject line.

Using Microsoft Excel:

  1. Open your mail merge document in Microsoft Excel.
  2. Go to the "Data" tab in the ribbon.
  3. Click on "From Text" and then "From File" to import your recipient list.
  4. In the "Text Import Wizard", select "Delimited Text" and then "Next".
  5. In the "Delimited Text" dialog box, select the delimiter (e.g. comma) and then click "Finish".
  6. In the "Mail Merge" dialog box, select "Edit Individual Documents" and then click "OK".
  7. In the merged document, you'll see a placeholder for the subject line. You can edit this placeholder to add your subject line.

Using a mail merge template:

If you're using a mail merge template, you can add a subject line by inserting a field code for the subject line. Here's an example:

Subject: = "Your Subject Line Here"

This will insert the subject line "Your Subject Line Here" into the email.

Using a programming language:

If you're using a programming language like Python or Ruby to send your mail merge email, you can add a subject line using the Subject header. Here's an example in Python using the smtplib library:

import smtplib
from email.mime.text import MIMEText

msg = MIMEText("Your email body here")
msg['Subject'] = "Your Subject Line Here"
msg['From'] = "[email protected]"
msg['To'] = "[email protected]"

server = smtplib.SMTP('your-smtp-server.com')
server.sendmail("[email protected]", "[email protected]", msg.as_string())
server.quit()

This will send an email with the subject line "Your Subject Line Here" to the recipient's email address.
