    Default Sending email to a group

    Hello,

    I want so send out a email but not on a regular base to some clients

    Now i have made a custom field for maillists when adding a contact
    I can select a maillist. If i do a search for contacts and select this custommade field then
    it shows the users. When i select all, and click send email, all emailadresses are in To field.
    I need something or somehow to email a group, whiitout showing all emailadresses.

    Whats the best way to make it happen what i want?
    .

    I would use the "Campaign" module. Having chosen your candidates according to your bespoke field criteria add them all to a Target List using PowerProspecting which is now available for v5.2. In that way the names do not go into the To field. You can either set up the type of Campaign as a Newsletter which if I recall doesn't have the opt-out link in it.

    Yes, use the campaign module. It was made exactly for this purpose. Please read the available documentation.

    @ opt out: there is no (well, almost no) difference between email and newsletter campaigns. In both cases you can avoid the opt-out link by creating one under tracker URL but not putting this link into your mail. Then the standard link isn't shown either.
