Thanks as always for coming back so quickly Flor. I think I did something radically wrong when updating the distribution group. Anyway, I had to get the job done and so did it the long laborious way. When I have the time, I'll attempt to start all over again with setting the group up. Right now, the job has taken up most of my day and it's time to catch up.

Perhaps that's why the message is not being sent. ----- Original Message ----- >From: "Flor Lynch" <florlync@xxxxxx> To: <vip_students@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Monday, November 24, 2008 1:24 PM Subject: [vip_students] Re: Sending Emails to Distribution Lists Hi paul, Select all of the addresses (select all) as they are in the To field; cut to clipboard; then paste into BCC. Now, back in the to field, insert your own name. That may be the quickest solution. ----- Original Message ----- >From: "Paul Dromey" <pdromey@xxxxxx> To: <vip_students@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Monday, November 24, 2008 12:37 PM Subject: [vip_students] Sending Emails to Distribution Lists Hi folks. I have never had reason to set up a distinct emailing distribution group list up to now but, out of necessity, have this morning successfully done so. However, when I try to send the email out to the group by inputting the distribution list name into the send box, it doesn't appear to be going anywhere., though I am getting a list of at least some of the list members coming up. Which leads me to another question. How can I send the email without including all the distribution email addresses in the email. Something to do with the bcc box I know. Paul Dromey Any idea what I'm doing wrong? _____ I am using the Free version of SPAMfighter <http://www.spamfighter.com/len> We are a community of 5.6 million users fighting spam.
