By typing their names into the To box and selecting Bcc To.

Only some groups that are needed for moderator activities have the ability to be mass-PMed.

Maybe. But that's what the suggestions forum is for, not the Q&A forum.

There is a way to do what is being asked... I stumbled upon it accidentally and not as a MH mod.
NS, PM me and I will tell you how to do it...

ok the best way i find is. put all names in the text box single lined. then save it. this saves inputing them every time you want to pm them... all you do is open saved messages and copy paste it to the recipents box.

or the other way is open a 2nd folder once you input them all add yourself then move the pm to your 2nd inbox(this will store it.) then all you do is open it and reply to sender and all reciepents

Not exactly progressive are we? The world can do this except CC. We get stupid changes of the look of the dice at times which hardly anyone could really care about but not something that really matters.

seriously. people should simply sit back then they feel the rage growing. Give it some time and it will go away..
so i edited my nasty message and want to extend my apologies.

With regards to mass pm's you can still do that, so luckily we have an admin who actually listens to his users.
