How to reply to everyone who replied to me? (Outlook)

Factual Questions
1

I sent out an email a while ago to several Philosophy departments, and got replies from several individual professors.

I would like to send an email out addressed to all of these professors.

Is there a way to do this that doesn’t involve me typing in or copy/pasting a lot of email addresses? It would be great if I could somehow just highlight all these emails I got and hit a button or two that lets me reply to all of them in one fell stroke…

I’m unaware of a way to do this with the stock features, but you could use a macro like this one.

Some good features in that general direction were added in Office 2010. I’m not sure it does quite what you want though. What Office version are you using?

The macro linked to by Number will send a separate copy of a “master” email individually to each of the selected replying parties. It won’t send a single common email to all of them at once.

It sounds like our OP isn’t up to modifying or improving macros.

Ok, here’s an improved one.


Sub ReplyToMultiple()
    Set objAddress = CreateObject("Scripting.Dictionary")
    objAddress.CompareMode = vbTextCompare
        
    Application.ActiveWindow
    
    For i = 1 To ActiveExplorer.Selection.Count
        DoEvents
        Set objEmail = ActiveExplorer.Selection.Item(i)
        strAddress = objEmail.SenderEmailAddress
        
        If Not objAddress.Exists(strAddress) Then
            objAddress.Add strAddress, ""
        End If
    Next
    
    Set objEmail = ActiveExplorer.Selection.Item(1)
    Set objReply = objEmail.Reply
    objReply.To = Join(objAddress.Keys, ";")
    objReply.Display True
End Sub
