Default only show group distribution name on the to line without listing .

I would like to send an email to 83 recipients in the TO line. I don't want
to list them in the BCC line. However, I would like to give the group a name
and only want that group name to display on the TO line rather all 83 email
addresses (which is very busy looking and untidy). If one of the 83
recipients would like to see who are the ppl within the group of 83, they can
double click on the group name and a list of all the addresses can be
displayed. Is this at all possible?

I found an article ID 266339 and followed the instructions but doesn't work!
I couldn't put an unidentified/invalid email address in the TO while putting
the 83 email addresses in the BCC copy as suggested.

That is possible only if you are in an Exchange Server environment and the Exchange admin is willing to create the distribution list for you.
