I would like to be able to send out an email to a group, but have each
individual get a seperate email. Is there an easy way to do this?

Use script (you want to loop through a list of indeterminate size so
Formula language won't do).

1. Get the Group document

Set docGroup:= dbNAB.GetView("Groups").GetDocumentByKey("value")

2. Set up a document for mailing

Set doc=dbCreateDocument
doc.Form = "memo"
...
create a richtext item and build the body text

Alternatively create a form in Notes Designer.

3. Loop through the elements of the members field

ForEach name in docGroup.Memmbers
doc.sender = name
Call doc.send
Next

There is no need to save the document .

You can get the correct syntax from the help file
