WATCH OUT! - this is what I consider a common misbehaviour (even in "official" mailing lists) please be careful and do NOT use the To:-field for such "mass mailings" - each recipient will see _all_ adressees... especially when there are lists in the AB and those lists are archived in the web this is quite a chance for spammers to collect (and personally I dislike strongly to see -at least some of- my mail accounts shared with folks I do not know, even if s.o. who I know knows them...) use the BCC: instead and put your own address in the To: so that noone can see any adressee - e.g.: To: undisclosed recipients <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> BCC: All ... -- kind regards, Shalom NOrbert using TB 1.60c __ Archives : http://tbtech.thebat.dutaint.com Moderators : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]

Hello Paul, > Is there a way that i may send 'dummy' messages to everyone in my address > book, to make sure they still have a valid address? Maybe you want to try Advanced Maillist Verify (AMV).

Red X questio
Hello tbtech, Is there a way that i may send 'dummy' messages to everyone in my address book, to make sure they still have a valid address? These people don't have to receive the mail, just something so I know it is no longer working? Not a line in the e-mail saying they must respond, but I was thing some more along the line of a reg X that will check each mail as it goes out, and if it bounces 3 times in a roe it will remove it from the address book, or marked it as 'not valid' Tia -- Paul F.
