| | WHERE DID THE NAMES GO WHEN SENDING BCC:? I always use Bcc: when I'm mailing something to a group of people. In Outlook Express, all I had to do was click on "properties" and "details" to check who I'd sent it to - a handy feature in case I had missed someone. Windows Mail doesn't seem to have this feature. Why would they eliminate such a helpful thing? |

Did you read the details carefully? Did you also look at the "Message Source"? |

| | Re: WHERE DID THE NAMES GO WHEN SENDING BCC:? Yes I did those checks, Richard. And even checked them again just now to make doubly sure. There is definitely no list of names. I just thought of something - maybe I didn't click "OK" after putting the names in Bcc. I wonder.................. going to try it again to see. Thanks for responding.

| | Re: WHERE DID THE NAMES GO WHEN SENDING BCC:? I checked again, made sure I did everything correctly, and the names still did not show. I am really stumped. I wonder if there is a setting in Windows Mail that I should change. "kate38ca" wrote: Quote: > Yes I did those checks, Richard. And even checked them again just now to make > doubly sure.

| | Re: WHERE DID THE NAMES GO WHEN SENDING BCC:? Oh man, blame it on brain fatigue from changing from old computer and XP to new computer and Vista over the last three weeks. I was checking the "inbox" instead of the "outbox". DUH! When I checked the "outbox", there was the list of names! Now, if we could only get everyone to use Bcc instead of To or Cc the world would be a better place!

| | Re: WHERE DID THE NAMES GO WHEN SENDING BCC:? Actually you must have been checking the "sent items" folder as you should not have any messages in your outbox for longer than a few seconds. You might blame in on brain fatigue, I get to blame in on a "senior moment", which is the only advantage I found to being over 70.

| | Re: WHERE DID THE NAMES GO WHEN SENDING BCC:? Richard, just when I thought I was getting smarter - yes, it was in my "sent" folder not my outbox. I turned 70 in July so I too shall claim "senior moment"!
