I am trying to send out a mass mailing using Mail Merge through Word.
However, I want this email to go from a different email account to my own
(all necessary permissions set up), and I can't see how to do this when using
mail merge as there isn't an option to change the "from" field.

Please can anyone help me?

Setup the other account as the default e-mail account in Outlook for the
duration.

I have a similar problem but need the file to be available to several
different people to run from various machines. Is there a way to feed the
FROM field in a VB script?
