How to Hide Names in an Email List
If you send an email to more than one person, you may not want everyone to be able to view the other recipients' names and email addresses. In order to hide the names in an email list, you need to send the email as a "Blind Carbon Copy." This is a simple task that can be done within any email program.

Tips & Warnings
Some email providers require at least one name in the "To:" field. If yours is one of them, you can always put your own email address in it and mail it to yourself as well as the others. Your name and email will be the only one visible to the recipients.
