outlook-2010

I repeatedly have to send emails that are nearly identical except they have a different case number. I'd like to setup outlook to just ask me for the case number, fill it in the appropriate place in the body and subject of the email and then send it to a preset list of recipients (it's a static list of people).

I think some combination of Forms and Templates should be able to do this but I'm unsure how.
