David, Thanks for your reply. I guess this would work, in principle. However, I think it would involve quite a bit of keyboarding/mousing to massage the original long comma-separated list of addresses into multiple Bcc headers. Is there, perhaps, a build parameter that can be reset to increase the 5000 character limit, so I can just paste the long list into a single Bcc header (without anything getting stripped off)?
Thanks again for your time. -- Todd Hesla On Thu, Jan 27, 2011 at 10:26:03AM -0600, David Champion wrote: > Date: Thu, 27 Jan 2011 10:26:03 -0600 > To: Todd Hesla <he...@aem.umn.edu> > From: David Champion <d...@uchicago.edu> > Subject: Re: Header line length limit? > > * On 27 Jan 2011, Todd Hesla wrote: > > Fellow Mutt users: > > > > I'm trying to enter, into the "Bcc" header field, a list of nearly 300 > > addresses.
