Hello, I apologize for my ignorance, but I really need some help. We are local group that does Trap-Neuter-Release work for feral cats. We have established a gmail account to be used by the 3 person TNR Subcommittee. Ideally, we would like to Auto BCC all three subcommittee members at their personal e-mail addresses with every e-mail that is sent from the gmail account.
Can someone please help us figure out a way to do this? Thank you! On Tuesday, April 2, 2013 10:13:06 PM UTC-5, Zack Tennant wrote: > > Ken, > That is one scenario that is often stated.
