Re: Hiding addresses in a group
Hello Leonard, On Wed, 28 Sep 2005 you wrote in LSB> So, how do I send e-mail to a predefined group without the recipients LSB> seeing the others addresses? Try using the "Mass mailing using template" choice in your Address book/File options once you've selected the relevant group. Make a template, say "Meeting" with something like the following in it. %SUBJECT="Next meeting"Hello %TOFNAME, Here are details of the next meeting. Regards etc Then, when you select this all you do is send and each individual gets a personal mail with no CC or BCC. You can also add attachments to send as in an ordinary mail. -- Regards, Richard | The Bat! 3.61.08 Echo (Beta) with SpamPal & a POP3 account | Windows XP (build 2600), version 5. 1 Service Pack 2 | F-Prot AV, Kerio 4.20.B5 and no Plug-ins http://perso.wanadoo.fr/lazyhomes/holiday.html Current version is 3.60.7 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

Re: Sending bulk emails
Hello TBUDL, I have a data base with approximately 2,000 members. On the occasions that I need to mass mail my group I do so using The Bat!. What happens if I have entered an email address into my data base which is incorrectly addressed then The Bat! refuses to send any of the other emails and I have to go through my entire data base to find the one email that is causing the problem. Why can't The Bat! send all the valid emails and leave the incorrect ones in the outbox. This is what I would expect to happen from this email client. Or do I need to configure The Bat! to do this? -- Love and Light, Granville mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Current version is 3.60.7 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
Hiding addresses in a group
I created a new group, Meeting, under Personal address book for mailings to about a dozen people who are on a committee. I selected the group for e-mail, and the To: came up with Meeting . However, the recipients did not see "Meeting " but the e-mail addresses for all of the committee members. I tried selecting the list from the BCC: pane, but only the first name in the list appeared. Yes, I could select each name individually from the BCC: pane, but then why do I need a group except to remind me who is in the group. So, how do I send e-mail to a predefined group without the recipients seeing the others addresses? Thank you. Leonard -- Leonard S.

YMMV. What I've seen in newsletters and commercial email (e.g. from my bank, from Amazon etc) has been ugly at times and very decent when loaded in Opera.

Be it New or Reply or Address Book, I can't think of an easier way to customize than with The Bat!'s Quick Templates, which even can include Regular Expressions. The selection of different SMTP servers for different accounts is quite cumbersome in T'bird, but easy with The Bat!. Filter options are more plentiful in The Bat!. I might find more items if I worked with T'bird more than I do. T'bird has its pros, particularly the handling of GnuPG, but it isn't a viable replacement of The Bat! for me.

Re: Thunderbird
Hello Duncan, D> what features did you miss from The Bat? I'd have to say that for me it's the ability to manage my POP folders *after* the initial retrieval, and the reason I use K9 instead of BayesIt. Once I've checked an account with TB! (as opposed to TB) any subsequent check from dial-up or mobile devices is free of list mail, large attachments and SPAM. Otherwise, I could probably live with the other (probably temporary) shortfalls for the sake of a true multi-platform solution.
