This question was asked the other day and the answer suddenly dawned on me last 
night.  The way I perceive the problem it goes like this:
You get an email from your best friend.  However before you get to the text you 
get the email addresses of that person's friends and it seems like the list 
includes everyone from their first grade teacher to all the politicians in the 
government!  Here is what the sender can do to get rid of this monotony.
When you open a blank email you first land on the "to" field.  Tab once and you 
get to the "cc" field.  This means carbon copy and that person or people get 
the same email you send to the first person.  These are the addresses that show 
up in the email when the recipient opens their mail.  Obviously this is what 
you want to avoid.
    Tab again and you land on the "bcc" or blind carbon copy field.  The people 
listed in this box remain confidential and the recipient will never see them.  
Not only should everyone use this field when sending bulk mail but they should 
encourage their friends to do it also.  Good luck, Judith
