Hi! - I'm new to this. I'm trying to get information on
how I can send a document to a group of people and not
have the entire list of the group appear on my email. I'm
sure that this uis basic stuff, but as I said - I'm new at
this. Thanks

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.

Try using the BCC: section instead of the To: section
where you list the email addressess. This stands
for "Blind Carbon Copy". Hope this helps!
