Undisclosed recipents....

paddyc

May be making a mountain out of a mole hill here but spent te last hours trying to figure out how to set up an email list, to "undisclosed recipents" so i can email group emails about and not have people reply to all and start spamming them...

any ideas ????

thanks:)

in most e-mail programs you have a

to:
cc:
bcc:

bcc standing for base carbon copy (i think?). Just put all the e-mail addresses in the bcc field and they will all be mailed seperately. people will only see what was in the to and cc field.

no they can't - not if you put the list of addresses in the bcc field.

By the way, I believe BCC stands for 'blind carbon copy' - i.e.: those on that list get a copy of the message but don't see who's on that list (and so, no, they can't reply to those on that list).
