To send emails to small groups where everybody knows each other, use the Cc field. Enter all of the addresses there, separated by commas. To hide addresses, use the Bcc field, just like the Cc field. No one will be able to see the addresses added in this field.
You'll need to send two messages for more than 500 recipients (which I hope are in the BCC field). There is no way around it. Also note that putting that many addresses in the message, even in the BCC field is more likely to be identified as spam.
The BCC (Blind Carbon Copy) method is the most common approach to send email to multiple recipients at the same time. Emailing to multiple recipients using the BCC feature hides other recipients from the recipient making it look like he is the sole recipient of the email.
Outlook makes it easy to send mass emails to a selected number of contacts using the standard and popular Mail Merge feature from previous versions of Microsoft Office. Sometimes you might need to send out an email for multi-recipients with personalized information for each one.
How to Send an Email to Undisclosed Recipients in Outlook
- Create a new email message in Outlook.
- In the To field, enter Undisclosed Recipients. As you type, Outlook displays a list of suggestions.
- Select Bcc.
- Highlight the addresses you want to email and select Bcc.
- Select OK.
- Compose the message.
- Select Send.
You should be allowed to send maximum of 300 emails per day (and no more than 100 recipients per message), through your Outlook.com email account. It doesn't sound much, but it's close enough to the Google Gmail limit of 500 recipients per day. A 300 or 500 daily limit is a solid number for any mailing list.
BCC – Undisclosed RecipientsCreate the email and then start to input the email addresses you want to send it to in the BCC. The BCC stands for Blind Carbon Copy. That means no one can see who the email is going to. When you send the message, it will be sent to all of the people in your BCC.
Sending Mass EmailsTo send a mass email directly through your Gmail account, simply Compose a new email and input your contact addresses. It is important to respect the privacy of your recipients – select the BCC option when inputting your contacts; this will hide all email addresses from the recipients.

- Open your Gmail account and click “Compose” to open up the Gmail compose window.
- Add your subject line and email text.
- Add the primary recipient's email address of your email in the “To” line.
- Once you click the “Bcc” button, you'll be able to add the address of each hidden recipient to your mail.
The above code will send emails to each email id in a row of “send mail to” column. Now to run this code, you can directly run it from here. Or you can add a figure or button in your workbook and then assign this macro to that object. I use shapes because of they customizable.
Launch Outlook and click the “New E-mail” button. Click the “To” button and, if necessary, choose an address book. From here, choose your blast recipients, which appear in alphabetical order. Press and hold down the “Ctrl” key, then click once on each person that you want to include in the group.
Create your signature and choose when Outlook adds a signature to your messages
- Open a new email message.
- On the Message menu, select Signature > Signatures.
- Under Select signature to edit, choose New, and in the New Signature dialog box, type a name for the signature.
- Under Edit signature, compose your signature.
In Outlook, click Contacts, and then click Contact Group. Type a name your group. To add your friends, click Add Members and then choose where–from your Outlook Contacts or Address Book, or by by adding a new Email Contact. In your Outlook Contacts or Address Book, select each name you want, and click Members.
The Outlook recipient limit for a single email is 500 people. This restricts the To, Cc, and Outlook Bcc limit. The maximum number of email addresses you can put in the To, Cc, and Bcc fields is 500.
The default number of allowed recipients in Office 365 is 500. For accounts that need to send larger batches of emails, we now have the ability to raise the limit and send to 1000 recipients.
Do BCC recipients see each other? No, they do not. Recipients that have been BCC'd will be able to read the email, but they won't be able to see who else received it. Only the sender can see everyone that was BCC'd.
