Trying to do a mail merge with office 2013.  I've done this for years with other versions of office (2003, 2007, 2010) but it's not working with 2013 for some reason.  I'm following all the steps, but the emails aren't getting sent.  Is there some way that the profile or something is set up wrong so that word isn't sending this properly? I've also tried to send via outlook, but in outlook I can't choose an excel spreadsheet for the list of contacts. 

What is wrong with this?  someone plesae help me!  My outlook profiles are all messed up becasue i use icloud to sync the calendar and contacts, but i use pop/stmp (whatever that means) for my email....

    I use plain text, and then I get this message.

    Try using Plain Text format and then switch back to HTML format.  It has been reported by some that this may "unblock" the sending in HTML format.

    What e-mail application are you using?

    In what format are you trying to send the messages - Attachment, Plain text, or HTML?
