Sending an email requires just three things, 2 of which are optional but it’s advised that you include them. The most important is the recipient’s email address; the second is the email subject (a single line describing the email contents); and the message itself. I suppose you already knew that, right? Now, if you need to send the same message to many people, you don’t need to go through the exercise of composing the email all over again. There are actually several ways to send an email to multiple recipients and on this page I shall tell you how to do that with screenshots from Hotmail, Yahoo! Mail and Gmail email services as well as popular email programs like Windows Mail Vista, Outlook Express and Windows Live Mail.
3 ways to send an email to more than one recipient
To send email to multiple recipients all you need to do is to enter email addresses one after the other, separated by the comma, in the To, Cc or Bcc fields. So what’s the difference? Firstly, the Cc and Bcc are the ones that should be used when sending a message to more than one recipient – that’s simply the proper way of doing this
What is the difference between Cc and Bcc?
Cc stands for Carbon copy and Bcc is Blind carbon copy. When Cc is used, recipients will know all the people to whom this email was sent. Bcc, as its name suggests, hides the email addresses of the recipients from each other. However, both the Cc and Bcc will require you to have at least one email address in the To field. A smart way of using the Bcc field is to put an alternate email address of yours in the To field and all the other recipients in the Bcc.

The Cc field is displayed by default. To bring up Bcc, you need to click on the not-so-inconspicuous link

It’s better to leave Windows XP and just upgrade your laptop. It’s much better. Besides, Windows XP is way better then Windows Me. Windows Me is obsolete and many programs that can run with XP, can’t run with Me.
