I have a situation where I have 138 members that I want to send an email to. However, I need to make sure ONE of them doesn't get it (its a surprise for him). Is there a way to exclude a member?
Or, is there a way to extract all the email addresses from the database? I can do that, exclude his, and send an email via regular email.

Thanks for your help?

Never Mind!!! I figured it out
I just did it through the database.......

I'm not sure if that is possible, although you could try this.

Add a usergroup, just for the time being. Place that user in that usergroup (remember to make it his primary) .When you send out the email, check all the usergroups except the one he is in, then send the email. Then put him back in the regular group, and delete the group you made.

To be safe I would just temporarily edit their email address.

You can grab the emails of your user database by running this query in phpMyAdmin:

SELECT email FROM mybb_users

Yes, I've done this before. It's an easy way to exclude someone from a mass email.
