Hi, all: I research and buy old postcards and other memorabilia for our museum. When I find something I think may be of interest to our curator, I have to e-mail it to two places--her home and her museum office. I haven't found a way to put in both addresses at once; the way I'm doing it now is bulky and time-consuming. Anybody have an idea how to do that?

I think in all email you should have a line below to: that is marked CC: put the other address here.

With all the email programs I have used Eudora, Mac Mail etc. all you have to do is put a comma between the addresses. It may not be the same with some email programs.

Oops, sorry I wasn't clearer!

When I CLICK ON "SEND THIS ITEM TO A FRIEND," on the item's auction page, that takes me to a page where I can type in an e-mail and send (with message or without) to someone. That's where trying to send to two isn't working for me. I've tried the comma between addresses but that doesn't do it.

Why don't you send it to each one separately.

Why not copy the URL and use your own email to send a clickable link to both addresses.

Buyhigh: Sending to them separately means quite a few extra steps, as it works now. I'm always going for efficiency.

Toolhound: I guess great minds think alike! As I finished sending my last message, it occurred to me that I could do just what you're suggesting! Voila.

But wouldn't you think eBay would make it possible to send to more than one through "send to a friend" from the auction page? Doesn't it make sense? What reason would they have NOT to include that?

If you use IE or Fox fire right click the page and then Sendlink or email what ever it says then it pops up an email with link on it and add email addys. simple.

OMIGOD, irked!!!! Thank you so much! This is the simplest way yet, and I never knew about this. (I have Firefox.) I'd give you a big hug if you were anywhere near.

AWH Shucks mam, ( cheeks turning pink hanging head, slapping hat against knee)

I just hate using ebays or anyone elses system of sending email this way it calls up default new to send email and you just add the addresses ya want. Glad you now know.
