AFAIK the To line reflects the mail envelope as specified in the 
appropriate RFC, so no chance to modify it, whichever mail client you 
use. Even if locally hidden, (which isn't very smart indeed) it will be 
seen by all recipients.
My workaround: to use some aliases of my own mail address, sort of 
MyList<myself at myprovider.com> in the To line, and put the actual list as 
CC (if recipients are entitled to see all others), or as BCC (to hide 
the distribution list, for privacy concerns).
