Question : Outlook.Application. Trying to specify 'To' recipient by using the 'From' field.

Sorry for the confusing title.

I am automating emails. I build a string of email addresses that I am sending templates to (not spam =P ). I am sending them via BCC. So I want to make myself the person I am sending the email to. Is there an attribute in Outlook.Application that uses that?

code snipit below.

Thanks!
