I am trying to resolve an email issue that we are experiencing with sending an email to a list of recipients. Outlook only allows a set number of email address which require us to spit the list in two groups.
I am asked to resolve this by creating an email template within .net and when the send button is pressed, I will send out individual emails. Looping through the list.
Instead of having a user enter images and text within the email template I was thinking of a way to read in an email template file created from within outlook, then display it with a text editor (email template) to allow changes if needed.

What I have tried:

Tried using a ckeditor to use within a .net form. Having issues with displaying an outlook msg file.

It is possible, you really need a parser - this may be a starting point Reading an Outlook MSG File in C#[^]

I would set up 'placeholders' in the message template - then its a simple task of composing a new message for each recipient group, filling in the placeholders and sending the message (ie, you might not even need to edit it manually)
