I need your help.

As I frequently send emails to my friends at the same time, I dont want
any of them see the other. Is there a feature in the Gmail I can
utilize so I send the email to all them at once, so no body of them see
each other and at the same time and they see the To: field is
undisclosed-recipients.

Thanks

Just put your friends in the "BCC" field (click the "add bcc" link) and
put your own address in the To field.

Hello Ryan,

Whatever u have suggested for undisclosed receipients is not worked...
It had already shows all addresses of your friends... Can u tell me
another option for "undisclosed Receipient"..

It won't appear to work from your end because, quite logically, you
know who you sent it to. The friends who are receiving it, however,
will only see your name. If you doubt it's working, make a Hotmail
account and send a test email to it.

To add to what Ryan stated, to get "undisclosed-recipients" you leave
the TO field empty, but some mail servers will NOT accept e-mail with
no TO, and many will automatically mark them as spam or junk. I'm
also not positive that GMail will allow you do to that with their
webmail client.

Following Ryan's suggestion is the best, and YES, you'll still see the
names in YOUR copy of the message, but they won't in theirs.
