I'm trying to get as much info as possible on the best way to send out < 500 emails a day where

1. the list of email addresses comes from FileMaker 13 and can change daily
2. each email (the email body content) is different

So if I have 150 emails to send out today there will be 150 different emails - the content of each is totally unique - much much more than a simple "mail merge"; the content = a list of related items for each person coming from a related FM table.


Questions:

- what are the potential issues using FileMaker 13 SMTP

- what are the ways around these issues

- have you done this, or can you connect me with someone who has

- I've looked at ways to work with MailChimp, Constant Contact, and Mandrill but none seem to allow the dynamic creation of the email body so that I can have 150 unique emails for 150 email to address; is there a way to do this that I don't know about?

- does the best way to handle this change if the number of emails / day is < 200 vs. < 500 ?  how about over 500/day?


Thanks in advance.
