I regularly send mass emails to members of a walking group which has
over forty members. I have had a problem with using the bcc method in
that the gmail-using members of the group often didn't get the emails;
presumably gmail think (if this is an appropriate verb to use of
gmail) that all mass emailings are from spammers.
What I use now is ImpEmail from Sine Nomine:
http://sinenomine.co.uk/software/ near the bottom of the page. This
does MailMerge for emails, and works extremely well, though you do
have to RTFM carefully before you use it. You also get Hilary and
Matthew's excellent support if you have problems.
It injects messages directly into the queue of Hermes or POPStar or
can use your ISP's SMTP server directly. The emails don't appear in
MPro's Sent Mail folder, but ImpEmail has two ways of saving the
messages. It only costs a tenner, and is now one of my must-have apps.
HTH,
Best wishes,
Peter.
