You can probably without much sweat customize IC to do what you want,
but I like to think of IC as more of working in tandem with software
specialized to do what you're talking about (called CRM - Customer
Relationship Management).  Right now all you want to do is send a
targeted email to those on your list so you something that can do that
(IC can with a little customization), but wouldn't you really rather
have a specialized open source solution that really takes the cake for
CRM?  

Compiere is it.  HTH,
