Dear Sirs,

I have one question: Is it possible using Pine 3.96, if one composes a
message to a distribution list, that means to several different addresses,
to send this message in one step in such a way that any receiver of the
message cannot read in the hader who else has got the same message? If
this is not possible I would like to make the suggestion to allow this
option in future versions of pine.

With my best regards,

Ulf Winkler, Leipzig, Germany

That was in comp.mail.pine yesterday ... while composing a message
move the cursor into the header region and press ctrl-r (rich
header). Then write the list of addressees into the field Bcc: (blind
carbon copy) and noone will know who else has got the message (even if
all header options are on, as has been stated in the other thread).

l8er, norbert.

An even better way would be to use the Lcc: field.  Go to the Lcc: field
in the "rich headers" area and type ctrl-g for more information...

Hi Ed,

yes you may be right, but I wasn't sure whether 'distribution list'
refers to a mailing-list or to a list of recipients locally created in
the user's address book. But maybe, it's all the same ... I'm not that
much into pine (it's gnus, yes it is :-)

cheers, norbert.
