There is an address book accesible from the start menu with many addresses in it and no apparant simple way to move one to the TO: fiels of a new message. There is also what appears to be a different address book available from a little square icon on the message composition screen. This address book is empty. I can't see a way to import the addresses into this address book from the one available from the start menu. What do I have to do to have easy access to an address book without rekeying all the stuff that already exists in the one that is hard to use?? Ed |

I am new to Windows Mail and Vista. I used Netscape email previously. I have set up separate contact groups for specific people who I contact specifically for that group either as a group or individually. When I click the contract group how do I include the people in the group to receive the email as BCC so others can not see there email addresses? It seems as though I can only send to TO: so everyone will see the addresses. How can I thread emails like was possible in Netscape so they are filed by topics and there responses?

Put the group name in the BCC: field. If you don't see the BCC field, in the compose window, click on View - Show All Headers. -- Vista Home Premium 32 SP1 http://get.live.com/wlmail/overview "Bernie " <bjaroscak@ncweb.com> wrote in message news:uZXcBZOEJHA.1460@TK2MSFTNGP03.phx.gbl... > I am new to Windows Mail and Vista.
