In your header:

	To: Arbitrary-Name: mailing-list-alias;

In your ~Mail/Aliases (or whatever you use):

	mailing-list-alias: ronnie, maggie, george, barbara

Your recipients will see:

	To: Arbitrary-Name: ;

You can also you your own set of (comma-separated) names in place of
mailing-list-alias.  This, of course, assumes your MTS (mail transport
system) conformd to RFC-822.  See the RFC for details.
