I'm secretary of our school PTFA and need to regularly send out email to the 80 odd members. We have been using Outlook express with all the addresses stored in a group folder. Unfortunately when the emails go out they are showing the email addresses of all the other recipients.

This has caused some issues as not everyone wants their personal email address advertised to the rest of the society. Also, some people have been unable to collect the mail because it is picked up by anti spam software.

Is there any way, without individually despatching each email separately, to send them out 'en-bloc' without the encumberance of all the other addresses?

Suggestions much appreciated!
Thank you :o)

When you select your group add the member addresses to the bcc (blind copy) field rather than the to or cc fields.

The addresses of the other recipients of bcc emails won't show up when the emails are received.
