Apple Mail/Address Book Question

QUESTION:

Several of our members have been confused and wanted me to ask you a question. Specifically, when one wants to write a new email to a Group and calls up the new screen, he can then go to the Address tab and select a Group and the choice provided is either as a To: or CC. address.

Is there any way to also have a choice of Bcc:? Currently, I select To: and then copy and move all the addresses down to Bcc. Seems like a wasteful exercise.

This is possible in Leopard's version of Mail (which contains that
all-important BCC button in the Address Book window) but not in Tiger's
version of Mail.

In Tiger, under the View menu choose BCC Address Field. Now create a new
message, click the Address Book button, select a group in the Address Book
window, and drag it into the message's BCC field.
