    Didn’t realize you could send bulk emails with Right Inbox. I’ve been using it since you recommended it in one of your previous videos and loving it.

    • @Simpletivity

    Right inbox sounds interesting for a non-profit organization that I represent. I periodically sent a bulk email to our members using the bcc method. There's about 800 emails, that I send in two batches to remain below Gmail's 500 address limit. Not sure if RIB would work; it mentions a daily limit for the free version but I haven't seen what the limit actually is. Having said that, RIBs other capabilities makes it worthwhile to look at anyway. Thanks for the tip.
    ++++ Addition ++++
    So I went ahead and installed RIB, only to discover that MailMerge is omitted from the free version. The few features in the free version are severely limited to 10 per month. With all due respect, I think those are limitations you should have mentioned in your review, especially since you characterized it as "free". I will stick with the BCC method.

      Here's how to send multiple emails to a single email in Gmail:
      Select Emails: Select the emails you want to forward by clicking the checkboxes next to them. Use Ctrl+click (or Cmd+click on Mac) to select multiple emails at once.
      Forward as Attachments:
      Click the three dots (more options) icon in the top right corner of the selected emails.
      Choose "Forward as attachment".
      Address and Send: A new email window will open. Enter the recipient's email address, add any necessary additional message, and click "Send". The recipient will receive the emails as attachments.
