Occasionally I receive emails where all the addresses of the receivers are blocked so you do not know who else got that email other then you. Is there an option in Outlook Express that will let me do that? Sometimes I don't want the person on the other end of the email to know who else received the same email as they did and it would be nice to be able to mask the info in the from box.

You can just put everyone who you are sending the email in the bcc field. Then you can just send the message to yourself, so that you get a copy of the message and so does everyone in bcc, without any knowledge of anyone else who received it.

And if you don't see the BCC field in Outlook Express (should be between CC and Subject) then go to View --> All Headers when creating a new message.

Just please don't send us messages about those little RC cars that were "this year's hottest toy."
