Concealing multible recipients in Mail

Hi,
In mail, is it possible to send emails to multiple recipients with out them knowing that others are being emailed?
From the recipients POV it must look like he is the only one being emailed, so bcc won't work.

Tutu5,

Here is what I do when I don't want others to see who else the email is going to. First in Address book I make a Group with all of the people I would like to email. Then In Mail I go to (Mail)/(Preferences) in the menu bar, (Composing) tab in the window that opens, and then uncheck (When sending to a group, show all member addresses). After which I compose my email with the send field showing the group I made in Address book. And Click Send.

When the person I'm sending the email gets the email the to field that shows who the email is address to has (Undisclosed-recipients;) instead of showing any names/emails.

Hope that this helps with your issue.
