SEND PERSONALIZED MAIL-MERGED MESSAGES USING STATIONERY & SIGNATURES With Maildash, you'll be firing off emails and texts in rapid succession, using mail-merge stationery templates, without all the tedious typing. Just select a contact or group, choose a pre-formatted message, and tap Send. It’s as simple as that. For example, to tell your friend John Doe that you're running late, choose the “Be there soon” template, and tap the Send button. What gets sent is: “Hi John. I’ll be there soon. I am running a little late.” Your recipients will never know how fast and easy this was for you since all outgoing messages are personalized with names, current times, dates, greetings, and signatures. Find yourself writing to the same people or groups of people over and over again? Make your shortcuts even shorter by adding them to Maildash’s “Favorites” screen. This convenient option works like the iPhone’s phone number “Favorites”. Simply choose an address and a message, and Maildash will do the rest. Add email addresses and phone numbers to Maildash’s Favorites from: the iOS Address Book; keyboard; or by pasting multiple addresses or phone numbers into the Favorites screen. With Maildash on your iOS device, you can custom design your own stationery. If you don't see a message that fits the situation, just type your own personal template using the keyboard; or edit one of the pre-formatted phrases that have been included. Customizing your email has never been simpler. With the Template Editor, you can create your own unique phrases; and multiple formal and casual email signatures as well. Never again will you have to reduce your regular dialogue to a jumble of alphabet soup-like SMS speak and abbreviations. With Maildash, the only thing that will be abbreviated is the amount of time that it takes you to respond to them.

Easily manage and send email to groups from the app, or share documents directly to groups from other apps, or forward email to a group. This version of our popular app will create up to 100 groups, each with typically 100 contacts. (Limits depend on your email provider.) Create groups in many ways: add from Contacts, import an address book group, enter addresses directly, or paste strings of names and addresses. MailShot creates its own groups, which can do several things which regular address book groups cannot... • Contacts can use different email addresses for each group. (Add work address to a work-related group, and home address to a sports group etc.) • Contacts do not need to be present in your address book. An optional plugin is available to check all the email domains for the addresses in a group, as an error there is a common cause of group email problems. It will also check any new addresses you add. TIPS • Protect privacy by placing addresses in the Bcc: line. • To forward an email (with attachments), “Copy to clipboard" then paste to the address line in your Mail app. SUPPORT We pride ourselves on the quality of our support and are always happy to hear from you. Please use the "Support" button in the app, as this includes diagnostic information. You can find a full guide, support information and tips at http://solubleapps.com/Mailshot-support.
