When I send a message to a mailx alias that has many userids in it (like 200)
everyone that recieves the message see all of the userids on the "To:" line.
Is there any way that I can suppress all of the userids and just show the alias name ?? 

I know that you can suppress anything on the header by putting the command;
set ignore "To:" in your .mailrc file, but I want to see the "To" line. I have 
tried embedding aliases, creating fictitious mailboxes, etc.

Thanks
