Default Can I send e-mails using mail marge to more then one contact

I need to sent 300 e-mails but they need to be sent to 5 contacts at a time.
to simplify this I need to send 300 e-mails where in "To:" filed i will have
5 contacts. This is personalized groups message.
I have 300 5ppl groups and one mail needs to go to one group of 5 ppl.

Using Excel and Word 2007 there is just drop down i can choose just one data
column.

Was thinking bout workaround did in excel column with 5 emails separated by
"; " but outlook gives me an error that it cannot recognize the contact.

You could use a modification of the method in the article "Mail Merge to
E-mail with Attachments" at:

If you have five contact fields in your data source then MAPILab's Mailmerge
toolkit add-in for Outlook http://www.mapilab.com/outlook/mail_merge/ will
allow you to add them all to the 'To', CC or BCC fields in any combination.
There is a demo available.
