    I believe the undisclosed recipients are "bcc'd". Which means, blind carbon copy. You can use this function through Yahoo, however you will need to have a recipient in the TO line, I normally put my own email address there.

    More than likely the sender has a folder or creates a folder with MULTIPLE email addresses and name it whatever they want to. I get the same tons of SPAM emails. The good thing about Yahoo is as long as you don't click on any link in a suspected SPAM email you don't risk getting a virus. Hope this helps!!

    I've tried this a bunch times, to test it out, before answering your question. It seems to work great.

    Put your contacts in BCC------and on the TO line, put an address inside parenthesis-----such as----(myownname@anywhere.com).

    The mail is delivered to those in BCC as undisclosed-recipients.

    HOWEVER-----the address within the parenthesis, apparently gets nothing.

    In experimenting-----I put my own address at my alternate email in ( )---On the TO line---- and I never got it there------but I called (BCC) contacts and they got it as undisclosed-rec..........

    Try it for yourself and see if this is what you are looking for.

    If you don't have an email program that'll do mailing lists, simply put every recipient's name in the BCC list (blind courtesy copy), and put only your own email address in the TO: field.

    That'll accomplish keeping everyone's email address unpublished when you send out your email.

    When sending an e-mail, place addresses in BCC which is blind cc, ... you will need to have one seen receipient in the regular TO address block, ... but adding everyone else to BCC means that no one else will see that you addressed them.

    You can't email to undisclosed, they are undisclosed for privacy reasons
