Unless you want to do it manually, I would create a filter to do that. String: e (this is a catch-all) and under Advanced: "address must not be listed in address book" and Actions: "add to addressbook". > [Doing that and then deleting the ones who will not be receiving the > notice would be far easier than copying individual addresses that I > select.] Depends on the number of addresses. > [I also presume that putting all names in the bcc field and then sending > the message to myself is the easiest way to avoid having everyone on the > list see everyone else's address?

When you do have addresses in the addressbook, and you notice the mini addressbook icon in the TO/CC/BCC fileds in the editor when creating a message, do click on it when you are on the BCC field. You can easily add addresses; not much effort to add all addresses. -- Cheers, Thomas. Moderator der deutschen The Bat! Beginner Liste. Quantum Mechanics: The dreams stuff is made of.
