I have done lots of mailmerge in other software, but cannot figure yours out. 
What is an "address list"?  While you allow me to hand enter one, I need to use
a comma delimited file or a spreadsheet, and I cannot find any way to do that. 
Further, you appear to limit your merge to just the name and address.  I need
to put other merge fields in my letters.  If that can be done, I sure can't
figure out how.

Current behavior: Documentation is incomplete, confusing and impossible to use.

Expected behavior: Documentation needs much improvement.
