I have a mailing list.  It was quite easy.  Once in my mailing list I 
believe Ihit z.  Check the list at the bottom.  It asked me to name the
list, which I did as ptp.  Then it asked for addresses (not names.  Mine
won't let me put names on addresses).

Then when I want to mail I merely hit ptp on the send line, at least that
is what I did early on.  Then my list got up to over 100 people and all
those addresses took up 3 pages.

So, now when I get ready to mail I mail it to ME.  Then I hit
Conrol R and I get an expanded heading, including a line
bcc (blind carbon copy).  Next I type my ptp on this line and now
the letter goes out with only one person's name, their own, on each
of the 100+ letters.

Hope this helps,   bob Corbett

If it is not clear, write back, I'll try again.
