Default Hiding Recipients

Is there a way to hide the recipients, name's & email address's, on out
going email?

I believe I once received an email, were the TO was: Undisclosed List.

If so how do I set it up?

Thanks,
Bill

Some ISPs will bock email with nothing (Undisclosed) in the To field.

1. Make an entry in your OE Address Book for the name you want them to see
in the To field and give it your email address.
2. Make a new Group in the OE Address book with a name slightly different
from the above and put all the contacts in there.
3. Open a new message and click View | All headers.
4. Put the name from 1 above in the To field.
5. Put the name of the Group in the BCC field.

Note: Many ISPs limit the number of recipients per message. Mine limits it
to 25. In this case I would need three or four groups, maybe GroupNameA,
GroupNameB, etc.

Also note that some people have Message Rules which will prevent them from
seeing these messages.

Answer in newsgroup. Don't expect an answer to email.

Default Hiding Recipients

To use the BCC (Blind Carbon Copy) feature, In Create Mail, either click
View | All Headers and type in the addresses separated by a; Or: Click the
To button. You will see your list of contacts and the choice of putting them
in the To, CC, or BCC field. Click on an address, then click BCC to add it.
Repeat for all the contacts you want. (Note: Most ISPs have limits as to how
many e-mails you can send a one time. 25 is common, but it varies).

Put your own address in the To box. This is the only address/name that any
recipient will see. If you leave the To field blank, some people may not
receive the e-mail due to message rules they have set up, or restrictions
set by their ISP.
