Hi Jason,

Just in case you hadn't considered this. The anti-spam policies of many mail
servers frown upon use of bcc.

It is recommended (happen to have done a lot of reading on this this week),
that a personalised email each sent to each recipient.

Thank you for your reply.  The first explanation was taken (incorrectly)
as inflammatory.  My apologies.

With that in mind... Exchange doesn't care.  It must be something else.
Back to the drawing board... :)

In SMTP, multiple recipients are specified one by one, with multiple
RCPT TO
commands:

HELO sendinghost.sendingdomain.com
MAIL FROM: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
RCPT TO: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
RCPT TO; [EMAIL PROTECTED]
......
DATA
Message goes here
....
QUIT

What Jochem was saying - not insinuating - is that someone familiar with
SMTP, and who's used telnet to send SMTP, would know this. Arguably, if
you're going to manage a mail server, you should be conversant with the
protocols it uses.
