multiple recipients problem in mail
Hi all, I have not used mac and mail much since Yosemite and can no longer send mail to multiple recipients chosen from contacts. I tried searching the archive but could not find anything so I’m sorry if this has already been addressed but very grateful for your help. I went to bcc and pressed the “add contacts” found the group of contacts I was interested in and water to go through them and select some to add to the bcc field. Multiple selection contiguous or not did not give any vo feedback and even after just highlighting one contact, I found no way to actually add this to the bcc field. Am I missing something? Call apple accessibility and the adviser was also stumped and said he’d get back to me this afternoon Very frustrating since I need rather urgently to send out multiple mailings.

Re: multiple recipients problem in mail
Hi, If these recipients are already in your Contacts, then simply type the first few letters of their first or last name and let Mail do the rest. So, for example, if I was wanting to send a message to Fred Flintstone, Barney Rubble, Wilma Flintstone and Betty Rubble, I’d do the following: • navigate to the appropriate addressing field in the new mail message. • start typing “Fred F” and let Mail complete the name for me. • if it chooses the right name and eMail address, then just press return and start the next individual. • If it does not automatically choose the correct name or eMail address, there could be multiple addresses available. In this case just arrow up/down through them then press return and go on to the next recipient. • You may also need to enter a few extra letters if there are many with similar spellings. • once they’ve all been added, you can move on to the message content and such, then send away. HTH. Later...

Re: multiple recipients problem in mail
Thanks for your reply! Unfortunately this wouldn't work for me. I'm speaking of at least 150 people and I have to sift through them and select the ones I need. These are not people I know personally but rather on the larger mailing list. Any ideas and suggestions still very welcome.

Re: multiple recipients problem in mail
Hi, What I’d do then is go directly into my Contacts app, sift through the recipients from within there. So, interacting with the table of contacts, navigate from the top down. When you get to the first contact you wish to eMail, press VO-cmd-return, then press it again as the first time deselects in this case. From now on, you only need to press VO-cmd-return once when you wish to select a contact. Thus, navigate down and press VO-cmd-return once on each of the remaining people you wish the message sent to. Once they are all selected, press VO-m to go up to the menubar, over to the File menu, down to “New Group from Selection” then type a name for the group. Use this name in Mail when sending to that subset of contacts. You can delete the group after if you wish since this sounds like a temporary solution for you. HTH. Later...
