How many email addresses can you Bcc in Gmail?
Gmail has a daily sending limit of 500 emails per day, which includes all recipients. This can be
either a single email to 500 recipients or 500 individual emails. It's important to note that new
accounts may have lower limits.
When using the Bcc feature, make sure to keep track of how many recipients you're adding to avoid
exceeding the limit.

To avoid the batch limit, send each email separately using a command
line SMTP email client such as <https://github.com/zehm/sendEmail>.
Alternatively, there is a more modern option: <https://github.com/muquit/mailsend/releases>
which may meet the more stringent requirements of some mail servers.
Essentially, you create a list of email addresses (your members) and
a covering email. Then invoke the program, pointing it to the file of
email addresses, the covering email, and any files that need to be
attached.

You still need to use somebody's SMTP using these options. They are a >complete waste of time for OP who sends bulk messages once a month. You
can't have your own SMTP because you are not a telco. You rely on
somebody to allow you to go online and send emails no matter what you use. >Although gmail allows you 500 emails per day, they are still very strict

The machine decides what you can do and what you can't.
might be safer and easier to contact one, or perhaps several, of the
intended recipients on the sender's mailing list by some other means,

don't know, but would recommend <news:news.admin.net-abuse.email> for eliciting their expertise in such matters ...
certainly any intended recipients of email should be expecting it, or
would probably click their "spam" button to avoid the risk of opening
it; current members on any mailing list should be notified in advance

Google did not like it when I tried to post to 199 Bcc addresses so I
split them into three similar groups.
That seemed to work Okay until I got error messages from 'talktalk' >customers. :(

You can create a free account with brevo and send 300 emails per day in
your thunderbird or Microsoft outlook client.
You get SMTP server and you can use your custom email. I use it all the
time even for gmail, yahoo, AOL or outlook.com accounts. Because you can
use email client, you can customise many things including From and reply
to addresses.

<https://www.brevo.com/pricing/>
The problem with either Gmail's max recipient per day or Brevo's is that
once the bulk mailing is sent then you have less quota left. With
Gmail, the OP's 200 recipient count would leave him 300 recipients for
the rest of that day. With Brevo, the 200 recipient bulk mailing leaves
him with 100 for the rest of that day. If you don't send many personal non-bulk e-mails, the remainder may be sufficient for repeated use on
the same day. If the OP ever sent out 2 bulk mailings per day, he'd
still have about 100 left that day, but his 2nd bulk mailing would hit Brevo's daily limit: he would be trying to send 400 e-mails with a 300
per day quota. Of course, he could do one bulk mailing to 200 using
Brevo, and another bulk mailing to another 200 using Gmail.
When using Brevo's SMTP server, you would need to configure your local
e-mail client to specify valid From or Reply-To headers.
From Brevo's pricing page, they will watermark all your outbound bulk
mails. Watermarking will likely spur some recipients to report the
e-mails as spam. Removing the branding requires a paid Brevo account.
I didn't see an automated opt-out mechanism for contact management at
Brevo in the pricing page nor at:
