outlook express question

[cabal]

This is a dumb question, but how do you send a message to everyone in your address book?

That's not a dumb question.

The only way I've found so far is to: Click on Create Mail (or New Mail, depending on which version of OE you're using.) Click on "TO" raised box. Hold down the CTRL key while selecting with your left mouse button. Click on "TO" raised box. Click on OK. All of the ones you selected above should now be in the "TO" menu.

If you find another way to select all of them, please post it here.

BTW, if you haven't already, you should go ahead and upgrade to IE 6.0 which will update your OE to 6.0 also. And, then apply the Security Update, December 13, 2001 (Internet Explorer 6)

Just had to check it out and I found something that may work for you. From OE window select address book from the tool bar, select all (control A), right click over any address and select action...send mail. That works for 6.0 and I would imagine it is same for 5.0

Just a reminder that when you send a message to multiple address that you remember to use the bcc function and not the to or the cc. The bcc will hide the other addresses from everybody else and will help prevent spam. Just my 0.02.

Thanks! I knew there had to be a simple solution.
