    Use Bcc: or, in later versions of Pine, Lcc:.  In Pine, information
about these header fields is available online.  If you use Bcc:, you
should put at least one address, such as your own, in the To: field.

  1. use BCC: for the list with your E-Mail address in the TO: field
     
  2. Upgrade to version 3.0 and you can also use the nickname in the TO:
     field as long as you have entered a name on the INFO tab of
     the address book.
     (ie. Nickname: 'Newsletter',
          Name field on INFO tab: 'News Subscribers'
     then the list members will see 'News Subscribers' in the TO: field
     on their incoming E-Mail message.

Send the message using the BCC: (Blind Carbon Copy) choice.  It will
suppress all recepients names and/or email addresses.

Another way: type your 100 persons e-mail addresses in a Distribution
List and send the message to the list using the LCC: (List Carbon Copy).
It will show only the name of the Distribution List. This is a relatively
new features in pine.
