Feature Request: Display Group Name Instead of Individual Email Addresses

#588

Feature request: Display the name of a group instead of individual email addresses when adding a group to the TO field. (I have some groups of several hundred addresses, and showing jus the group name would prevent others from getting everyone else's email address).

    You should use the Bcc header for that purpose (hiding recipients). This is enabled in the left-most part of the status bar in the composer window.

    I know Apple Mail automatically converts a To header with a group name into the equivalent of a Bcc header (blind carbon copy), but this is not obvious. I had to test Apple Mail to make sure this is what happens. I prefer that the user explicitly has to tell MailMate what to do.
