Change "from" address on marketing mail merge?

Hi all,

When one runs an e-mail merge, is there a way to set the from address or
is it always the user running the e-mail merge?

My usage is to run a campaign sending an e-mail newsletter with
personalization, so Word mail merge seems to be the only route. However I
don't see a way to set the sender. Would I have to create a dummy CRM user
with the generic address, and log in that way to do the mail merge?

Thanks,

the sender will be the logged on user doing the mail merge
