Insert template file as email body - Thunderbird

[Acke]

Hi guys,

I found the following code on the forum:

Public Sub SendEmail()
    Dim thund As String
    Dim SendFrom As String
    Dim Email As String
    Dim cc As String
    Dim bcc As String
    Dim subj As String
    Dim body As String

    SendFrom = "test@test.com"
    Email = "test@test.com"
    cc = ""
    bcc = ""
    subj = "Testing"
    body = "Testing"

    thund = "C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Thunderbird\thunderbird.exe " & _
            "-compose " & """" & _
            "from='" & SendFrom & "'," & _
            "to='" & Email & "'," & _
            "cc='" & cc & "'," & _
            "bcc='" & bcc & "'," & _
            "subject='" & subj & "'," & _
            "body='" & body & "'" & """" 

   Call Shell(thund, vbNormalFocus)
    For counter1 = 1 To 10000
    Next
    Application.Wait (Now + TimeValue("0:00:03"))
    SendKeys "^{ENTER}", True
    End Sub

The task is to send emails according to generated list of customers. Emails will be sent one email per customer. The email body will start with a personal name (Dear [customer name]). This part will be solved with a loop as well as an appropriate recipient's email address. I don't need assistance on that issue.

After the "Dear [customer name]", I need to insert the file from a template. For the template, I was planning to use a .eml file from Thunderbird, or a Word file, as there will be some images along with the text. Is there a way to insert the existing Word or .eml template after "Dear [customer name]" to the message body?

Please be gentle, I am not a professional

I am of no use to you as I have never heard of Thunderbird, but I am sure someone else her can help you. Hopefully my reply will move this up a bit for visibility.

Thank you NauticalGent! I hope there will be a reaction.

Thunderbird is an email client - Mozilla Thunderbird.
