I am helping a colleague run for president of our association. I built
the website now he needs to send an email to all the members ~15,000
people.

We were given a spreadsheet with first name, last name, and email
columns. I would like to be able to send an email to each of the
addresses. Ideally, It would also insert their name in the body of the
email. Is there a service or program I can use to do this?

My host lets me send 750 emails/hour so I would like it to automatically
do this as well. My colleague is willing to pay, but the more economical
the better.

What you're asking is to help you spam 15,000 people.

Just to put it in context, think about if you were to receive an email from
your colleague's opponent: "Dear dongemus: I am running for president, please
vote for me, etc."

If you received such an email, would that *really* sway your vote toward that
guy? Or would you delete it before you got to the second line?
