I am new to Mac and Entourage. I would like to send the same email to 200+
contacts and not have any receiver see the other contacts email address. Do I
send an email to myself and blind copy everyone?

Yes

If I am sending out 200,
won't my email be placed in many junk mail boxes.

If you are not in their Address Book then yes.

How many can I send at a
time?

Entourage has no limit. ISPs do. The number of emails you can send depends
on the Host or your ISP. Some indicate no more than 100 emails in a batch
and no more than 500 in a day. Others limit it to 50 per message.

Get this script ,Split Recipients X. This script will replicate messages
into the number of copies needed to comply with an ISP's maximum number of
recipients allowed per outgoing message.

How do I create a group for future emails? Thanks.

Create a new Group in the Address Book. Be sure the contacts are also in
your Address Book or you could loose these if you ever have a problem with
your database. Entourage doesn't handle exporting groups. When you add the
contact that's in a group, add a category named group: name you assigned to
group.

This way all groups will be sorted together and you can select view by
category: group: xxx to view just those contacts.

Cheers and Welcome to Mac! I have a few tips and links posted to help new
users here:
