"How to" send an email to muliple contacts without showing multiple addresses.
Lets say that I have an email that I want to send to several of my
contacts or even a group list. However, I don't want everyone to see that the same email is sent to many people at the same time. As well, I would like each receipient to see thier own email address in the sent "To" area. I have found that if I place the multiple email addresses in the send to "Bcc" then my own email address will appear in the "Sent To" of the receipient. Does anyone have any ideas or maybe point me in the right direction?

Use the Tools | Mail Merge command on the Actions menu in your contacts folder to perform a mail merge to Word with email messages as the output.

"How to" send an email to muliple contacts without showing multiple addresses.
Sue,
Thanks for the help! It worked great. I am using Outlook 2000...maybe 2003 is a little different. I had to play around with the "Insert Merge Field" Email address into the document. The only slight glitch that I haven't been able to figure out is...that the email looses it's HTML formating. Even though I have my Outlook configured to use HTML (Word) as default. As well, the merged document is written using Word. As it is received on a different PC / different Email Account, the font is converted to the Generic / Courier type of font. I noticed that as the email is sitting in the "Outbox" it keeps the HTML font type (Times Roman). However, even here it looses Bullets, Italic and Bold. If you have any ideas, let me know. I was hoping to introduce a little graphics in the near future. If not, I can live with the font issue for now! Your help still saved me typing more than 300 email addresses individually at least once per week! Thanks Again!!!!

Outlook 2000 does not support HTML in mail merge messages. Later versions do a good job with it.
