How do u forward a mass email to many ppl without letting all of them see the other “forwardees”?

8 comments so far


I wanted to mail everyone on my email list this new warning today about a horrible virus, but last time I “mass emailed” all in my address book, many got mad. They didn’t want their email being seen by strangers like that… I want to be able to mass email without the people I forward to, to be able to see the other people I forwarded to . thanks

    Email it to yourself and Blind Carbon Copy “BCC” it to everyone else.

    Put everyone in the BCC and put yourself in the To: spot.

    Its pretty easy.. if u want to mass mail people but dont want them to know who else was the email sent to, u shud put their email addresses in BCC instead of TO or CC.
    BCC means Blind Carbon Copy and it is for this purpose. Whoever gets the mail will feel that he was the only one who was sent the mail

    First of all, make sure the warning about the virus is true and not a hoax.

    Do not forward the message.

    Create a new message and copy and paiste the info and send.

    Definitely check it out on snopes.com first. I get so many forwards and most are hoaxes.

    I email myself and bcc everyone else. Or, I clean it up by copying only the message (and not all the forwarded info) and paste it into a new email still using the bcc method.

    I presume you’ll have to type them in one at a time. It is a lot of work. Hope someone has a better answer.
