when I reply to a message, how do I pick a group from my address list and have the reply cc:'ed to everyone in that group ?

in the "WRITE" box that pops up, there's no reference to address list and when I start typing the name of the group, it does not come up in the suggested completions.

thanks richard

Chosen solution

In principle, open a Cc: box in your email message composition window, and add the "group" (aka Mailing List) to that.

Is it OK for all the members of the List to see and know each others' addresses? Would Bcc: be appropriate?

I don't like the sound of the Mailing List not being volunteered as a possible address. What if you use F9 to reveal the Contacts Sidebar and add it from there?

thanks, Zenos, I appreciate all you great folks who take the time to help the rest of us.

as it happens, i eventually found out how to reveal the contacts sidebar, and of course, that is the answer I needed ( as you said ).

thanks again for the help and generosity of spirit.

regards richard
