Default Public Folder Distribution List - Limiting Access

Hi! I have a question which I'm having a hard time finding an answer
for. Hopefully ya'll can help.

I need to create a distribution list that only a small group of people
can see and use. These are such secret contacts that they don't even
want their names listed in the GAL, but they still want a distribution
list so that all 7 authenticated users on staff can send them messages
without having to type in every name, every time.

I think the solution to this is a public folder, whose contents are
contacts, and whose permissions are restricted to just these 7 users.
I can't find anything that tells me for certain that, if I set up a
distribution list in a public folder with limited permissions, it will
work the way they want it to. ie: they will be able to see the
contacts, email the distribution list and receive responses back to
their own accounts, but not allow anyone else in the organization to
view the contact or distribution list data.

Does anyone know? I need to get this right, these are very demanding
users, the kind that hunt you down if you get their stuff wrong. Help!

Thanks, R
