Setting values to null (blank) with dataloader

I'd like to update a few hundred contacts and blank out their email addressed. I have a CSV with Contact ID and an Email field that is blank. I run an update but the email address doesn't get blanked out.

I know that with the API blank values get ignored in an update, so how do I tell the dataloader to blank out a value?

Thanks,
Steve

There's an option in the settings to send nulls which'll do what you want.
