Hi Edward,
On 11 December 2000 at 19:47:26 -0700 (which was 02:47 where I
live) Edward Taylor wrote and made these points:
ET> Can you use The Bat to mail to a list of people without loading up
ET> the To: or BCC: fields with server clogging list addresses.
Please do not write to the list in HTML. It is against the list rules
and many of the members here do not appreciate it. Some even have
filters to move any HTML mail directly to trash.
In answer to your question, there is no MUA on the planet that can.
Maybe if the addresses are supplied by the server, then you send the
server an alias for that list. That's the shortest addressing method.
If the addresses are to be supplied by the MUA, TB can help initially
by allowing you to specify the name of a group in the address book.
But, when the message is sent to the server, the individual names from
the address book replace the name of the group in the To: or BCC:
field - as they should. How is the server suppose to know who to send
to otherwise? Ultimately, the server needs to have a complete (and,
perhaps, "clogging") list of recipient email addresses to be able to
route a message to the intended recipients.
