Subject: Distribution Lists Show All Names

I want to send the same message to each address in a
distribution list (created with the "S" command), but
don't wan't _all_ the addresses listed in the "To:"
field of every message.  Just want one.  Is there a
way of accomplishing this?

Thanks.

	Your wish will soon be granted!

	The soon to be released pine3.92 will have an Lcc: header where
you can specify the list name.  The receipients will only see the name
of the list.

	Regards,

    Probably the simplest way is to put *yourself* in the To: field and
the distribution list in the Bcc: field (use Rich Headers if you need to). 
Then all the list recipients will only see his/her own address when the
mail actually arrives.  (You need to put something in the To: field to
protect yourself from some mailers.)
