how do I email an address group without showing everyone all the addresses?

simbasweetie

Hi there, I want to email one of my address groups but don't want the email to show all of the other recipients to each person I am mailing to, is there a way to mail everyone in one go without showing all of the addresses?

Thanks very much

You will still have to put somebody address in the to filed so what I do is send it to myself and bcc everyone else in.

You shouldn't have to do that. On receipt the to field will contain an entry like undisclosed-recipients.

The problem with receiving a mail with the undisclosed-recipients address label is many anti spam filters, filters this out

So by putting his own address in the to field, the email will not just be addressed to undisclosed-recipients
