• To send this message to more than one person, separate their addresses in the “To:”
box with commas: bob@earthlink.net, billg@microsoft.com, steve@apple.com.
• Mail offers Auto-complete. If somebody is in your Address Book (page 279),
just type the first couple letters of his name or email address; Mail automatically

Mail revises its proposal.)
• As in most dialog boxes, you can jump from blank to blank (from the “To:” field
to the “Cc:” field, for example) by pressing the Tab key.
• A blind carbon copy (“Bcc”) lets you send a message to someone on the sly (none
of the “To” and “Cc” recipients will know that you sent the message to the “Bcc”
recipients). If you’re sending a message from a different email address than usual,
“Reply-to” lets you specify an email address that your recipient should, well, reply
to. And a message’s Priority lets you tell your recipients how urgent the message
is.
If you would find these fields helpful while composing a message, click the three-
