Hello Roelof,

YMMV. ,----- [ From TB's current HELP: ] | If you want to write to every member of an address book group then you | can use the Mass Mailing feature. This will create a personal mail to | every member of the group. Alternatively you can type "Handle <list>" | into the address field of a message, where "Handle" is the handle of the | Address book group. The Bat! will resolve this at the point of sending | and will create an identical message to every member of the group. The | advantage of Mass mailing over Group mailing is that Mass mailing will | create an individual mail to every member of the group, resolving | personalising touches at the point of creation. Group mailing will not | do this. `----- ,----- [ From the new HELP being written: ] | You can send a message to all contacts in one group by using the group's | handle in one of the Receiver fields (To, CC, BCC). The Bat! expands all | addresses into the field when sending. Use the Mass Mailing feature for | a more personal and private approach. `----- -- Best regards, Miguel A.
