I already use the BCC field, Hanet. :) the trouble is that as things
stand, I have to hunt through old emails and copy and paste the
addresses into the new email, which is just about as time-consuming.
I finally got that email sent out tonight, but I am hoping by next
wendesday to have it all working nicely so I can just send it all out
at once.
the selecting thing with disabling cursor tracking just is *not*
working *sigh* and I am frustrated, because it looks like it *ought*
to work ...

Can I add that using the Bcc: field hides your recipients email
addresses from one another. So it appears that each person is the
only one getting that email from you. Makes it more personable.
And protects the privacy of everyone on your email list.
I want to add that, on my email account here, I have a limit of 50
email addresses that I can send to in one mailing. So I set up a
second group folder. Just FYI if you ever find you have the need to
do that.
I run a mailing list for Felix's music gigs. I've got around 70
people now on the email list. So that's where I get this knowlege
from! I need to protect all Felix's "fans" privacy, you know, from
getting placed on other people's email lists uninvited.
It's happened to me before. Now I raise hell if I see something
sent to me along will a whole slew of other email addresses on it!
Especially those forwards. Those are the worst. Because your email
address will get forwarded all over the planet each new time that
item gets forwarded.
Yikes!
Anyway, my 10 cents worth. Inflation, you know.

Hi Tim,
LOL. I wish I had known this when I created a group of
fifteen ...

Hi Jane,
You asked: I have a group of six people I need to email--we are al
on the same committee. How do I set up a list where all I do is
type in the name and all the emails are sent out to those people?
TK: Try the following:
• Go into Address Book app.
• Select the 6 Contacts you wish in the specific group. You may
need to use the non-contiguous selecting method if the contacts are
not one after another.
• Once they are selected, go under the File menu and choose "New
Group from Selection".
• Type in a name for the group.
Now when you are in Mail, you simply type the first few letters of
the name of the group and it will find it for you. Since it is a
group, it will send the message to all members of that group.
HTH.
Later...
