Use Word's Mail Merge feature. There is an option as you work through
the step-by-step to select Email messages as your document type. The
mail goes out individually, so email addresses of other recipients
aren't visible.

Subject: [mso] Sending mass email to entries in an Excel contacts
spreadsheet
Hello everyone,
I'm wondering if there's a more efficient way to send a massive email to
my contact database, currently entered in an Excel spreadsheet. I have
columns dedicated for people's names, organizations, job titles, and
email addresses. When I send a mass email, I need their addresses
listed in paragraph form, separated by commas.
The way I've done this is concatenate a column of cells containing
commas with the email cells, paste/transpose the emails/commas from a
column to a row, paste the row of email addresses into a new
spreadsheet, save the new spreadsheet as a CSV, open the CSV using
Notepad, and (finally) copy the notepad contents into my recipient list.
Is there an easier way to do this that I'm not aware of? Thanks.
