How can I set up a distribution list in Outlook 2000 that will not reveal the names of the recipients to each other.

I have received emails with something like "undisclosed - recipient" in the To: field and I would like to do the same thing.
 
I don't think you can...

We are using Distribution List's and what we do is instead of putting it in the To field, put it in the Bcc field.

A receipent that receives the email will not beable to see who else is getting it. This can also cut down on the transmission of viruses. If you get an email and there is a buch of email address in the the To field...don't sometime they get added to your contact list? (Outlook Express??). Then you have a bunch of address in it and more vulnerability.....but maybe I am wrong.
