So I've been trying to do a mail merge for emails for a while now. I'm trying to send out an email to the a sports organization that I run. I've always been able to do this with PC versions of office in the past.

I go into word, set everything up, go the mail merge steps and when I go to click merge emails or whatever it says, it always kicks back as invalid email address.

I'm using an excel spreadsheet with three columns. First Name, Last Name, and Email. I can map the first and last names to the header in the email, but do I have to map the email anywhere? In previous versions of office I didn't. And yes, I do have outlook set as my default mail client.

Any help would be much appreciated as I keep having to run back to my old crappy PC to make this happen right now.

Thanks for the help!
