You can join the thousands of other people who are searching for ways to work online and make money. To make online money, you need to find an online job. Sounds only sensible, right? Many people don’t do enough research when it comes to finding the right business opportunity for them. The lucky people, who find the business opportunity that’s right for them, will almost surely succeed at it because they enjoy what they are doing. It’s important t Step 3: Send your Newsletter to Yourself In Publisher, go to (File -> Send Email -> Send This Page as Message) and email it to your email account in Microsoft Outlook.

BCC's are bad for two reasons - one, they tend to be automatically filtered out as spam, and two, they don't allow for personalization. Most people will tell you that if you are in this situation it is time to upgrade to professional email software. I personally like doing my newsletter design in Publisher and would prefer to continue to use Publisher. I also like using Outlook distribution lists. I have a script that sends me the list of people that are signed up to my newsletter each month in a format that simply copies and pastes into a working Outlook distribution list.
