Hi, I was just wondering if it were possible to hide the addresses on a message that is being sent to many different people, by Outlook Express. Does anyone know how to do this? Thanks

Blind Carbon Copy ?
Press the CC above Subject
Then, in Select Recipients move all the names you want into the BCC Box
Then then message will go to each of the Names unbeknown to each other - however -
Tip - in the Mesaage Header put your own name in TO - you'll get the message back but it obviates the Recipients getting the first name in the List in the TO field - a quirk of OE!

Thanks Lesley that works fine. One more question please. I notice that in the message in the "sent" folder you do not get the list of recipients either - is there a workabout to that one? Thanks

OE doesn't do that. Outlook does, however. If you have MS Office, you might want to consider switching to Outlook as your mail reader. It's much more sophisticated and graceful with many more useful features.
