I dearly wish that I could mail an auction "to a friend" to more than one person at a time! It's so cumbersome to send the same auction, one at a time, to three people. Why oh why can't this be done?!

Or is there a way that I just don't know about?

I suppose you could cut and paste the information and send your own email. Would that make it easier.

Have you tried multiple email addresses separated by a comma?

Don't know for a fact if it would work...but try it...ya might

Libra--I could, of course, do that!

Tomwiii--The first time I tried to send an auction to three people, with their addresses separated by a comma as I do with regular e-mail, only the first person on the list received the e-mail, so I just gave up. I may try it again sometime and see if things have changed.

If you are using Outlook, it's pretty simple to send someone a page without even cutting and pasting.

Go to TOOLS and select MAIL AND NEWS. You then select SEND PAGE and the page will come up in your browser and you can send to anyone and to as many people.

It might work with other mail programs but Outlook is the one that I use.

On my e-mail system, when I want to send the same message to multiple addresses, I separate the addresses with a semi-colon, NOT a comma. Maybe that would work for you...good luck!

Just to elaborate on dixiebee's instructions...

You need to have your Outlook set to send mail in HTML. Go to Tools, Options, Mail Format, and choose HTML next to Send in this message format:

This will send the page exactly as is. An interactive screen shot, so to speak.
