Choosing contacts for Newsletter by tag or keywords
I am only just realizing how useful the Newsletter function is, and for me it would be very much more useful if it could choose recipients by using Tags or keywords.
Thanks

Got it about tags. Although, please explain what you mean by saying "keywords".

Keywords would be using the Search function and finding a group from the result.
Useful if Tags have not been set up for all contacts but the keyword occurs in Contact Notes or adress, (a postcode for instance).

Contact groups are available from the drop down list when choosing recipients.

Re: Choosing contacts for Newsletter by tag or keywords
Thanks, I do use this, but I thought it could be useful to search for a keyword like part of a postcode to choose contacts from a particular area.
It didn't seem to be possible to produce a search result like this, and use the contacts for a newsletter.
I have come up with a workaround now though - Search, highlight all, ctrl drag into a temporary new group and then delete the group after it had been used for the newsletter.
Sorry I hadn't thought of it before!

Re: Choosing contacts for Newsletter by tag or keywords
I see what you mean. In this case we should probably enhance the Find option in the "Add/Remove Recipients" dialog window so that it searches across all the data fields in contacts.

That would be very useful if you have time. I realize there might not be a huge demand for it.
