| 1.Make TheBat leave a copy of OUTGOING message in the inbox folder of my mail server |
The easiest way to automate that is to add the line %BCC="%FromAddr"%- to all of your templates. That way you're sending all of your messages to yourself, thus causing all of your outgoing messages to be dropped in the inbox of your mail server.

| 2.Change the TO field when sending a letter to multiple addresses to show only ONE address per recipient. So if im sending MAIL1 to friend1@yahoo.com and friend2@yahoo.com, each of them must see only his Email and NOT both. |
When you want two different messages (the To: header is part of the message) then you have to send two messages.
An advanced way to send same/similar/personlised messages to a group of persons is TB's mass mailing feature. Create a quick template (options -> quick templates) and write your message, you can use all macros, eg use "Hi %ABToFirstName," to personalise a message a greeting. At the options tab set 'use for new message/mass mailing'.
When you've finished the quick template, go to the address book. Select a group that only contains the people you want to send this message. (As one contact can be part of hundreds of non related groups, that should pose no problem.) And from the menu pick:
File -> Mass mailiong using template -> select template
Keep in mind that though this does what you want, it uses a lot more bandwidth than the traditional ways to send the same message to multiple people. You not only use more of your own bandwidth but also more of your server's bandwidth.
Suppose you're sending a message to ten peoplethree are with ISP1, three are with ISP2 and the other four are with other ISPs. Traditionally your message is sent as one message to your server, from there one message is sent to ISP1, another messag to ISP2 and four to different ISPs, so you sent one message and your server sent six. What you want to do is to send ten messages, so your server has to send ten as well. It's a waste of bandwidth.
For those of us who're running their own server that might be more of an issue, but I thought I'd better mention it.
