Yes, Sue, I also delete all other addies before forwarding to other people, but I shouldnt have to delete so many. I think I will have to try to diplomatically suggest to my contacts that they use BCC in future. |

If you are on AOL email, in the Copy To box put brackets around the various addresses and separate with comma |

The main reason this happens is ignorance or laziness. They just hit the forward button and add their own addresses and so it goes on.... and on. |

Christine, I am on hotmail too. Click on BCC before putting in the email addies. They will then not be visible to everybody. |

Why is it that so many people send an email to lots of people without using the BCC option? I receive a lot of emails with the email addies of about 20 people on them. They are people I do not know. If the sender used BCC I would not be able to see all those other addies. It bothers me to think that there are dozens if not hundreds of strangers who can see my email addy. |
