Hi,
I am not that familiar with aol but look for an option called “bcc” this is a blind carbon copy and everyone will see the same e-mail but nobody will see eachothers e-mail addresses.
What do you think? Answer below!

Put all the addresses in the BCC field. Put your address in the from and to fields.

I don’t use AOL, but check if there is a BCC or “Blind Carbon Copy” option when you send the email. List all the addresses in that field.

Well, you could use the BCC option and blind carbon copy them, but technically they will probably be able to see it in the full headers if they know how to view those.
Most AOL users would not know to look at the headers.
Also, I believe you may have more options if you use AOL’s Communicator email program. Just search AOL Communicator in AOL and you’ll find it.

Does AOL have a BCC line? if so use that it’s called blind carbon copy. Send it to yourself as the main recipiant and BCC everyone else

don’t put all the addresses on one line. use courtesy copies (cc copy )for the Remaining 49 addresses. that way no one will see any of the other addresses

I don’t know about AOL, but real email clients will allow you to setup Groups. Which does not show the individual email address when sent.
Look up configuring groups of your contacts.
good luck!

Here is your answer: This is from AOL e mail settings:
Send a Blind Carbon Copy E-mail to Multiple Recipients
Send blind carbon copies when you do not want the primary or carbon copy recipients to know that you have sent the e-mail to anyone else.
To send a blind copy e-mail to multiple recipients:
1. On the AOL toolbar, click the Write icon.
2. In the Send To: box, type the screen names or e-mail addresses of the primary recipients.
3. In the Copy To: box, type the screen names or e-mail addresses of the recipients of blind copies in parentheses, for example, (aoluser1, aoluser2, name@companyname.com).
Note: Recipients of blind copies will not see the names of others who received blind copies.
4. In the Subject: box, type a subject line for your e-mail.
5. Type your message in the large message box.
6. Click the Send Now or Send Later button.
Note: As the sender of the e-mail, you will always see the addresses of each recipient (even those who received blind copies). The addresses will show whether you look in your AOL® mailbox, in the folders saved on your computer, or if one of the recipients sends a copy of the e-mail back to you.

Enter the addresses of the people in the Bcc field when you compose your email.
