Hi, I should have clarified. This email was sent to me by one person. Hence, if I replied to all, he would be the only one getting it. The message body contains several more email addresses. They were not given the initial message that I was. I now wish to go into the message body, select all of the addresses, and send one new email to them all. Note: Doing command A selects the addresses but also the other text of the message. So this does not work.
