brewster:

Of the other two, one apparently sent okay, and the other returned this
rather pushy and aggravating message:

"Are you sure you want to send a message with only blind copy
recipients?"

Pushy damned program :-)

I have checked all twelve addresses in the original offender, and cannot
find any format errors. So now what?

Relative to your observation "I don't much use contact lists", do you
have an alternate suggestion for my application of it? I am a board
member of a non-profit, and a board member of an e-commerce startup,
plus a coordinator of a volunteer cadre of twelve (the original problem
list). How would *you* reduce the typing labor if you had to
occasionally send email to a group of six, nine or twelve people?
