If you're doing that, I would presume you are printing your own 
newsletters, in which case the easiest way to do it might be to make the 
newsletters without addresses, then have a separate Scribus file which 
only has the addresses in the appropriate location.  You just do a 
second pass with the pages that are supposed to have the address on 
them.  Once you made that multiple page address file you could use it 
again and again, editing when you need to add names, change addresses, etc.
