I send out a monthly Newsletter and last month, the first time I used TB! to do this, I was sure that the attachment went once even though I used "Mass mailing using template." I now realise that it can't have done because, in using the template, the attachment is put into it so each recipient must get it separately but that's really why I asked the question in the first place.

I just thought that, maybe (and in my naivety), individual mass mailing could work as BCC as far as attachments were concerned :-) TF> I am asking because I am not quite sure what it is that you really TF> want to do: Either you want to send individual messages (in which case TF> each message needs the attachments seperately, and in which case also TF> the mail will be personalised), or you want to send only one message TF> (so that yu send the attachment only once, but that means all 55 TF> recipients must be listed in the TO, CC or BCC field). Well I want both :-) I realise that, if I have a particularly large newsletter to send it would be quicker to use BCC but that I will normally use the mass mailing as I do have ADSL so it's no real problem. It boils down to me just being a bit thick :-( Thanks for your patience though. -- Best regards, Richard "Don't turn away from possible futures before you're certain you don't have anything to learn from them."
