OS 10.6.8 Today my friend asked me to send him some websites that provide a similar service. I sent him (6) emails with (1) web site on each because I don't know how to send all of them on just (1) email. Can someone explain how it's done? jaybass

I fail to see what the problem is.
Just put all the URLs on separate lines in the body of the text.

It may come down to how you are "Sharing" the site information.
In Safari if you click the "Share" icon and choose the "Email this page" option, you will get an e-mail with the page (either as an image or a link or both) included. I do not think it is possible to use the "Share" icon on multiple sites in only one e-mail.
As indicated in the post above, you could copy and paste multiple site addresses into one e-mail, but that requires you to move back and forth between your browser and e-mail. Not a real inconvenience, but a trade-off.
On a Mac since 1984.

The way I do it using Mail is - create a new email
- insert a descriptive word or phrase for each site.
- go to one of the sites in Safari and copy the site URL from the address line at the top of the Safari screen.
- Back in mail select the appropriate descriptive phrase
- Click on Edit > Add Link or press ⌘K. or I have customized the Mail menu bar to put Add Link on it
- past the copied URL into the dialogue box that appears
- Repeat the process for each of the links
Using split screen mode in El Capitan makes this procedure particularly easy and fast.

drag and drop?
you can drag the favicon that appears to the left of the url. when you drop it in a text editor, it pastes the url path
you may have to hit return to separate multiple entries. also you can drag from safari WITHOUT it being frontmost, so you don't need to be switching back and forth between safari and mail while doing this

Thanks Virtual1, I just tried dragging the bookmarks straight into the email with no problems. I did have to hit return to separate the entries..As some guy used to say..."and now you know"

As some guy used to say..."and now you know" That "some guy" was Paul Harvey (and sometimes his son, Paul Harvey Jr). The remainder of the tag line and the title of the ABC radio series was "The Rest of the Story", and nobody could tell it like he could (which is why it was canceled after his death in 2009). I miss it a lot.
