The next screen of the wizard asks you to select the way you will identify e-mail recipients. Your first option is to manually enter the addresses in Outlook. Obviously, that's not practical for a large database. I recommend using the second option whenever possible: using e-mail addresses stored in the database table.
Click the "Use the e-mail addresses stored in a field in the database" option and click the Next button to continue.
On the next screen, select the e-mail address field and click the Next button to continue.
