#28764 - 11/10/01 12:14 PM "Mail All Users" question
Anonymous
Unregistered

I have never used the feature fecause I am afraid everyone will get everyone elses e-mail address.
I have 1000 + members and want o protect the mailing list.
How can I make sure only one email address will be shown in each message received?
Also... will I have problems mailing to 1000 people using 5.4.2?
Thanks

This uses the Bcc option to send out the emails so nobody will see other user's email addresses. Shouldn't be a problem with the number of users you have as long as your mail server can handle it. I'm going to eventually make a modification to the script so it sends out in batches of a couple hundred which should be a better way.

an option to send an e-mail test only to administrator would be a good thing too...
We all like to see a sample before sending to everyone...

I used the e-mail to all users at www.ezboard and they also use BCC but all e-mail addresses appeared on each message... was like a visible BCC!!!
That is when I decided to buy wwwthreads :-)
But I am still worried... and unwilling to try...
