I sometimes receive email that is sent to "undisclosed recipients." How is this done? Do you put all the email addresses in the bcc line?

I got this from a web site a while ago so I can't credit them....

In your e-mail program, go into your address book and create an entry called "Undisclosed Recipients."

Assign your own e-mail address to the entry.

Then create a new e-mail and in the "To:" field type "undisclosed recipients." Your e-mail program will pull the entry from the e-mail address book and address the message back to you. This is like sending the e-mail to yourself.

Then use the Bcc: field to enter all the other e-mail addresses you want to send the e-mail to. Bcc means "blind carbon copy."

The addresses in this field will receive a copy of the e-mail message, but anyone who receives the e-mail will not know who else received it.

Thanks! I thought it had something to do with the bcc line, but I wasn't sure how to get the "undisclosed" in the "to" line.
