Hiding email addresses in Distribution List

[saturnin02]

Hi,
How do I send an email to a distribution list without having the recipients
see all of the other contacts on the list?
Tx,

Put the addresses in the BCC (Blind Carbon Copy) field of the mail header.
If that field doesn't show while you're composing a E-mail go to the View
menu and select 'BCC Field'.

Alternately you could use an application like the ones listed here:

Just put the DL in the BCC field (DL's always expand to the component
addresses--but no one will see them).
Some ISP's require you put something in the To: field, some don't.

U mean put the name of the distirbution list in the CC box?
Don't I have to also have something in the To: box for the email to be sent?
(I guess I just put myself there.)
