I need to accomplish the assignment below every month, with a different
list
eachtime, what is the right way to do it?

I DO KNOW the basics, but I'm having trouble with the finer points the
best way to use email addresses that are not initially in Outlook, and the
best way to use TO: and BCC: and distribution lists effectively to make
the
email look correct at the recipient's end.

I'm starting with a .TXT file in Windows but it's external from Outlook.
The file contains names and email addresses, approx 25 to 50 names. Here
is
a sample of the .TXT file (my real file is fixed-column, but it might not
appear that way in this message)

Miles Smith
Michael Dell

Steve Ballmer

etc

I want to send the same email message to everyone on the list. At their
end, the received message should end up looking something like this, with
either their own name in the "To:" filed, or a generic group or DL name.

I know one way to import the file into an Outlook distribution list, but
what is the best or correct way? Or, if I just copy the contents on to
the
BCC line, what should I enter on the TO: line? I don't want the message
to
look like

From: Becky
To:
Subject:
etc
