Guide Review - Save Mailing List 1.2 - Outlook Add-On

If you've used Outlook for some time, your address book is probably a mine of email addresses.

Save Mailing List is a simple, but useful plug-in that lets you dig this mine and export the results as mailing lists. These lists are simple and can be used with most bulk email applications. Save Mailing List is particularly easy to use: select any number of contacts or groups, specify an output file, and that's it. Save Mailing List will even remove duplicates from the output.

Of course, all this simplicity comes at the price of limited flexibility. Save Mailing List can't save any contact details and doesn't support any other output formats.
