I have about 50 addresses to sent out ( digital Xmas card ) but have had troubles before with it being picked up and spam - which maybe it is if your a Bah Humbug - so often have to engage in the long winded exercise of doing individual mails.

Anyone any tips.
I have choice of Hotmail, gmail and a china based server mail.

50 ... best to just use something like gmail and copy paste 5-10 addresses in at a time.

Does addressing as a BCC have an effect?

Not really if its like 10 or so... gmail emails get through ok in my experience if they're sent from their webmail (not via some proxied / smtp).

Some of the filters will look at hundreds of emails coming in with the same subject from the same IP / same sender. 10-50 not an issue I'd think.
