Re: Fwd: Re: Sending Mail from complete dataset

 

Hi Channara,

this is intentional. It is not good practice to include people's email
address when sending bulk emails as not everyone want to share their
private email. One should rather use the bcc field where the address is
hidden.

regards,

Lars
