	You are using pine3.95.  So, you are well on your way.  You
seem to work at Berkeley so with luck you won't mind a bit of
"Information Research"....

	From the m(ain) menu, type a(ddressbook).  Then type ?(help)
are read about the addressbook...which is really giving you a way
to do aliases.  Pay special attention to the section on "Distribution
List" which may come in handy when you want to sent to all 100 people
at the same time.

	Then, while composing a mail and with your cursor in the upper
portion of the screen type ^R(ich hdr).  Then put your cursor on the
Lcc: field and type ^G(help).

	Now, you should have the information you need....and you've
learned a bit more about the help features of pine.  This help feature is 
available without cost or obligation...and you don't have to be told
to use it in order for it to be of assistance.

	Regards,

		Ed
