    I'm using Windows 8 and I have an Microsoft account (@outlook.com). I was wondering if there is a way to remove or hide my email address from the lockscreen.

    Note: I don't want to use a local account, just to hide my email address. I also know about Hiding email address in Windows 8, but I'm asking specifically about the lockscreen.

    I am using Thunderbird hooked up with a Gmail account and want to know how to send emails to a group of people but not have them all see each other's email addresses.

    I want to send people some emails and I usually have to send them out one at a time since I don't want other people to see their emails.

    Use the BCC (blind carbon copy) line to insert the email addresses. The recipients will not be able to see who the other recipients are.
