When using a distribution list in Outlook 2000, the names of each member of
the distribution list shows up in the "To" box when the e-mail is received
unless you use the "BCC" box. Then none of the names show up in the "To"
box, but you have to put at least one e-mail address (real or made-up) in
the "To" box in order to send it. I know you can avoid that problem by using
the Word mail merge feature, but it is a fairly long, involved process and
we would like to avoid it. 

What I would like, is to find a procedure, macro, or add-in for Outlook that
would let me select names from a list, create one e-mail, and have Outlook
send each individual selected an e-mail with only their e-mail address in
the "To" box. Does anyone know of a way to do this, or a product that will
allow Outlook to do this?
