Select the contacts you want to send the mass email. Click "Select all" on the top of the menu to send to all of them. If you want to remove specific ones, uncheck the box next to the name. Or if you're sending to less than half of your contacts list, select them individually. If you want to send repeatedly to this particular list, check your left menu bar for an option to make this into a reusable contact list.

Click "Send email" at the bottom of the list. It will redirect you to a message box with all these names in the "To" box at the top of the email. To make the emails invisible from each other, move all but one email address into the "Bcc" box under the main "To" box.

Compose your email and click "Send." To send to more than 20 recipients, you can avoid having your email sent to a spam folder by sending the email with 20 addresses at a time. Some mail programs automatically reject messages sent to too many people.
