Selectively email suppliers to notify them of an address change

Question

It seems absolutely absurb that a user can't simply tick a series of suppliers (in this case) and the click an email button to send them all a change of address notification say.  Needless to say one can't selectively export contacts either so good luck with that then.

Hi Hmmm,

Yep, won't be doing that.  I have 550 Suppliers and they all need to be notified of our change of address.  We could go the archaic route of mail merge.  Or simply allow the user to tick the one's that are to be amailed.  Hmmm, I guess the only other way would be to export said cards with Co Name and email only as a comma delimited file then export to Excel, format the range as a table, sort alphabetically and then write a formula to add a ";" to each email address in a third column.  Now one simply has to select a range of newly resultant email addresses and paste them into the BCC of an email template.  Hmmmm, how nice would it be to forgo all that and give the user the ability to bulk email from within the program?  Which reminds me.  Why cant receipts be emailed?  Hmmmmm.
