Description caolanm 2009-02-23 15:56:32 UTC 
In the mail merge wizard it's not easy to simply select specific entries in the
address book that the user wants to create a form letter for. It is possible to
filter the entries using "filter..." but its pretty awkward to e.g. select 20
entries from the addressbook to send an emailmerge email to.

In comparison, the "old" mail merge dialog has a graphical display of all the
entries in the address book, and while it default to "all" it is possible to
quickly select specific entries or a range of records to operate on.
