i'm trying to send to multiple addresses using my email client.

i've put 1 person in the to box, and then another person in the cc box- but when i go back to the too box, it just shows the person i've put in cc, and not the first address.

help?

thanks..

thanks...

Put them all in the VCC box and separate the addresses with a , or ;
This is polite in that both parties get the mail, but not each others addresses.
If you don't care just separate them in the first box.

Here's what you do:


When in the entry area for typing addresses, hit 'enter' at the end of each address. Which email message header the address(s) will end up in depends on the setting of the combo box where you see items like 'cc', 'to', 'newsgroups', etc. It's a little funky. Here's an example:



I have the combo set to 'to:'. I tab to the entry field, and type "r2d2@droidlife.com', then hit 'enter'. Now, I could keep adding addresses in this way, leaving the combo set on 'to', to make a list. Now, to populate the 'cc' header, let's set the combo box to 'cc', then tab back to the address entry area. Now, we can add addresses, ending each with 'enter key', until our last. Then, we continue with our message composition.


HTH,
