My dad needs help with something, and it involves using some sort of customer database software. But here's the thing, it has to support the sending of HTML e-mails to various e-mail addresses recorded in the database. Anything you know of?
 
I don't know Perl, though. And remember, this has to store customer information, too. Or, rather, patient information; this database is more to be a reference than to directly provide efficient services, etc. But it still has to be able to send e-mails.

Actually sending the e-mails isn't difficult, but if there are a lot of them you could run into problems. See this SO question for more. Basically, if you want to send them yourself you'll probably need to set up or find an SMTP server yourself, as publicly-accessible ones don't tend to like floods of mail, and there are some regulations to comply with (assuming you're in the US).
