Thanks Mike, that sounds like it'll work. I wonder if I use wordpad to make up the list if that'll save me the trouble of sorting out correct code and the like. I'll have to try it and see how it goes. Thanks again. Tessa

Type them all as one long line-don't press the enter key! Save these addresses under a filename. When you want to use the address list, find the file by using File Manager, bring up the word processor, select all, and copy to the clipboard. You then bring up the email program and use enter-v to paste the clipboard into the desired field-I use "BCC:" and put my own address into the "To:" field. You then write your message and send it. A caveat is that if one address in the list is in error (it is improperly written), the message will not be sent. Sometimes the error message indicates the problem, but often you'll just have to carefully read through the list to find it. Once this problem address is fixed, the message will be sent successfully. You'll probably want to go back to that list file and fix the error there so it doesn't happen again. I've never encountered a limit on addresses you can send this way. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Tessa" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Date: Thursday, Nov 5, 2009 5:21:54 Subject: [GWN] mass email > > > Hi, > Is there a way in the bs+ to send an email to multiple recipients > repeatedly.
