I am sending email via a distributuion list and would much appreciate a hand. I'm transferring email form responses (quite a few) into Outlook contacts -- the responses didn't have fields that could go to an csv file, be nice if they did. Anyway, I'll create a distribution list. And understand that if I don't want each of the recipients to see the whole distribution list then I need to "BCC" the distribution list and only send one "TO" to myself. This right? But what if I wandt a message to confirm that each was sent, do I also "CC" myself -- a different address? Also, I'm trying to figure how I might place something akin to fields within the subject line (from ea contact within distribution list) and message body to help personalize the message: Subject line: <name> ; "with a message here" body: <company name field> <company address> Dear <name>: Last, if I can ask one more. I thought I recall seeing something like "templates" where format messages could be stored, but now can't seem to find it. Am I overworked today or is this a reality?
