The TO: in group mail

Question

I have set up a group in contacts.  When I send to this group, I have learned that it reads To: Undisclosed Recipients instead of the Group Name.  Some people do not open the email because they think it is junk or worse.  I don't want to send every group member the emails of the rest of the group.  Help!

Answer 1

Work Around:
On your mac (be interested to know if it works for Outlook):
1.  Open a new email
2.  Insert name of an existing group into one of the "To" fields as usual.
3.  Highlight all the resulting names in the "To" entry
     [Highlight first name, and while holding shift, highlight last name and all will highlight[]
4. Copy (Command C) the highlighted emails
5. Paste (Command V) nto a pages document
6. Remove the name and anything else preceeding the first < and also the first < of only the first entry whixh will look like this:
     [email protected]>,
7. Remove the > of the last email which will look like this:
     , Jane Doe <[email protected]
8. Copy the entire altered list from the pages document
9, Go to Contact Book and click + to add a new entry
10.. Name the entry (XXX Group for iPad) or whatever you wish to call it
11.  Paste all the copied altered list into any one of the email entry spaces
12.  Click on "Done"
13.  Create new email On iPad and click on + in any one of the "To" lines and search for "XXX Group for iPad"  You cannot just key in XXX Group for iPad!!!!!!!, you must use + contact search.
14.  Enter the selected iPad contact group into the "To" line.
15.  All the entries will now appear in the "To" line and you are good to go.
Adding or deleting email addresses from the iPad group:
Easiest:  Alter the original mac group in the usual way and repeat steps 1-14 above.  It seems impossible to edit within the emai line of the iPad contact entry.
Rediculously simple once figured out.
Happy emailling, but please send Bcc so that you don't spread your groups' email addresses all over the internet for spam, viruses, and other unwanted emails.  Be considerate and ask your recipients to notifiy you if they wish to be deleted from the lists you compose.
