I'm a photographer and I have lead emails that I can cut and paste from an 
excel program and just paste it into BCC so I can mass mail brides, and it 
loads them all with no problems. But now that I've switched to Windows 7 mail 
I can't do it. It acts weird and won't load the email addresses in BCC. The 
names are there when I paste them in, but it won't send. It says the name 
isn't in the contact. How can I get around this? thanks!

Assuming 'lead' means potential customers vs. the period table
 - How many addresses are you mass mailing ?

Windows 7 does not have a mail client...

Since you posted from the web interface, we can't tell your email client..please specify what you are using and if the current 
version.

I am not suggesting you switch email clients...just an fyi...business use of email on a larger scale especially where contact 
management(current and potential)is much better accomplished with Outlook and has a longer history of compatibility/continued 
flexibility one version to the next(as should be expected for fee based applications).

Hi Winston,

Thanks for your reply. When I get my customers emails from the wedding 
website that I belong to, I can download them to an excel program, I copy and 
paste the email addresses and would pop them in the BCC section in outlook. 
But now that I have Windows Live mail on my new computer I am unable to do 
this. Is this because Windows Live Mail is unable to do this? Should I go 
back to my old computer to do this? And typically I can c/p up to 800 emails 
at one time but I would only put about 200 addresses per email that I would 
send out at each time.
