Subject: From:/To: line too long

Quick question here.  A user recently asked me if there were a way to 
supress the From ot To line when mailing to a list.

For example, if I create a list of addresses in Pine, and compose a message
to this list of people, is there a way that I can configure pine to only
show that I'm composing a message to the list name without showing me who's on
that list?

When I mail to a list, I currently see this:

	To : listname - name@address1,
		name2,
		name3,
		etc.

What I'd like to see is this:

	To : listname
	Cc :
	etc.
	----- Message Text -----

By the same token, when some one on the list receives the mail, they should be
able to see just:

	From : listname

and also be able to toggle between a long listing of the From line the above
described shorter listing.  If this isn't currently possible, can it be a
possible feature in a later release?

Thanks for your time and effort,

Paul

P.S.	If it is currently possible, can you point me to the proper docs?  I
	tried to rtfm, but didn't find anything :(

    In case it is not necessary for everyone in the alias to know the
    addresses
    of the other people then you can use the alias in the "Bcc:" line.
    Then everyone will still get a copy.
    Note:  The "To:" line still needs an address.  Use your own address.
    Example:
        To: (Me) myaddress
        Subject: Alias Test
        Bcc: alias

        This is just a test to see if you get a copy of this mail.
