Can I hide multiple recipients in an email

Is it possible to show the distribution group name in an email, rather than
each individuals name in the group.

Create a new contact whose name is exactly the same as the Distribution
List. Give this contact your own address. Then, when you address a
message, place this contact in the To field and the DL contact name in the
Bcc field.

Of, use a mail merge to personalize the message so that each person sees his
or her own address in the To field.

Wow, talk about a great workaround! This has been driving me nuts trying to figure out if there was a way to get the group name to show instead of the recipients. Thanks very much.
