How to use a Sharepoint list for Word 2003 Mail Merge?

Ok, so now I finally have a good reason to use mail merge, and I have this absolutely fantastic sharepoint list that I've been tracking my Exchange 5.5 -> exchange 2003 mailbox moveswith... and I'm wanting to send an email to each user after migrating them, telling them stuff like mailbox size, number of items, when the move started and how long it took.  All of this data is in a sharepoint list that is updated from my migration actions.

However, when I go to mail merge to select the data sources and browse to the list location, I can't see it.  There doesn't seem to be any way to access it.

Seems I have to export and link to excel and then export?  That seems a waste of integration.  Am I missing something?
