1. create a Variable, e.g.

vEmailadresses = concat(DISTINCT(email),';')

(Note: email is the Field containing the adresses)

2. add following code into mudule and adapt Infos according your environment:

Sub SendMail
Dim objEmail
set v=ActiveDocument.Variables("vEmailadresses")
getEmail = v.GetContent.String
'msgbox(getEmail)
Emailreceiverlist = getEmail
timestamp1 = Timer 
Timestamp="-"&Year(Now())&"-"&Month(Now())&"-"&Day(Now())&"--"&Hour(Now())&"-"&Minute(Now())&"-"&Second(Now())

Const cdoSendUsingPort = 2 ' Send the message using SMTP
Const cdoBasicAuth = 1 ' Clear-text authentication
Const cdoTimeout = 60 ' Timeout for SMTP in seconds
mailServer = "smtp.gmail.com" 'adapt with your emailproviders smtp info
SMTPport = 465
mailusername = "YourEmail@gmail.com"     'adapt with your credentials
mailpassword = "YourPassword" 'adapt with your credentials
mailto = Emailreceiverlist
mailSubject = "Report"&Timestamp
mailBody = "Attached the current Report" 
Set objEmail = CreateObject("CDO.Message")
Set objConf = objEmail.Configuration
Set objFlds = objConf.Fields
With objFlds
.Item("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/sendusing") = cdoSendUsingPort
.Item("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/smtpserver") = mailServer
.Item("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/smtpserverport") = SMTPport
.Item("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/smtpusessl") = True
.Item("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/smtpconnectiontimeout") = cdoTimeout
.Item("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/smtpauthenticate") = cdoBasicAuth
.Item("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/sendusername") = mailusername
.Item("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/sendpassword") = mailpassword
.Update
End With
objEmail.To = mailto
objEmail.From = mailusername
objEmail.Subject = mailSubject
objEmail.TextBody = mailBody
objEmail.AddAttachment "C:\Users\Admin\Desktop\Test.csv" 'If you want to add an attachment put path of file here
objEmail.Send
Set objFlds = Nothing
Set objConf = Nothing
Set objEmail = Nothing
timestamp2 =  Timer        
MsgBox("the email sent to"&" "&adressat&""&" was successfully transferred."&" "&" the sendingprocess took "&"  "&Round((timestamp2-timestamp1)/60, 2)&"  "&"min.")   
End Sub

If you are using gmail for sending the emails make sure that the following option is enabled:

Account settings

hope this helps
