Hi Danny, glad I was able to help.
I came here a few months ago and received help for my problem, by reading
previous post discovered there was much I could learn, now drop in often to
continued my education.
Thanks for your reply,
Ken

| Hi Ken,
| We finally resolved this thing, thanks to your detailed explanation. The
| reason it never worked for me was that I always use the auto complete, so
as
| soon as I put in a letter or two the group name comes up, but then it
won't
| open with the names or addy's after saving to the drafts folder. As soon
as I
| went to select recipients everything worked as you guys have said. Hope
| these details help someone else.
| By the way, I'm new here and was wondering if you people were somehow
| attached to Microsoft or just folks like me. Thanks for your help.

| Hi Danny,
|
| I have OE 6.
|
| What Michael wrote is similar to what I do to remove a group member
before
| sending.
|
| Example:
|
| Create email including subject line, clicking To: brings up address book
| recipients dialog window where I add my group and click OK, group name
| appears in the To: field, click the X in the upper right hand corner of
the
| message window and click YES when asked to save the message.
|
| Then go to DRAFTS folder, select message, the group name is gone from
the
| To: field and replaced by all members.
|
| Double click to open message, click To:, now all members appear in
address
| book recipients dialog, scroll, select and right click the member to
remove,
| click Ok, click Send.

| | All my groups have more than one name as the word itself implies,
| otherwise
| | there wouldn't be any need to have the group in the first place. I
don't
| get
| | any personal names at all, just the name of the group that I put in
before
| it
| | was sent to drafts. So you guys are both telling me that you have the
| latest
| | OE 6 and are able to accomplish this feat? Is that correct.

| | Click on the Address Book and insert a group name.
