Hiding addresses when emailing multiple recipients

Last response: in Applications

Don't use a "To:", just BCC everyone. Also, this doesn't truly hide the addresses. If anyone is smart enough to show the full header of the message, they can see all the recipients.

What is your spec? Are you trying to spam people? Are you trying to avoid generating that much traffic so your mail server won't get blacklisted due to spam by sending the single message with all the recipient names?

If not, you can use any one of many different scripting languages (ie php, ColdFusion, ASP) to loop through a mail list or a query of e-mail addresses and send an individually packaged/wrapped e-mail message with only one "To: " to each recipient.

Right but now the "To: " field says "none" or is just blank, which looks too akward. So basically it's impossible to do what I was asking right ? :( 


Put your own email address in the to field.
