Perhaps someone on this list has tried to do this.  I have a list of
people in my address book and I would like to email them all a message,
but I want it to be personalized, like it would be if you used the mail
merge feature of many word processors to print out personalized letters.
Does anyone know if this is possible with Thunderbird or how to do it?

I'm thinking that I would write something like this:

To: %email
Subject: Renewal time for services
Dear %name, 
Would you like to renew your service?

Than point Thunderbird at this and my email list and generate an email
for each person.
