I have a contact group with 150+ people. Whenever I send a newsletter
out from gmail, everyone's addresses show up in the "sent to" box. Is
there a way only my address can show up there or the name of my
contact group?

You need to add the addresses to the Bcc field. You can also add them
by typing the group's name, but it will still add all the addresses
listed one after the other.
If you add the addresses to the Bcc field and leave the To field
empty, the email will arrive showing:
from: youraddress
to:
So, the To field will be empty when your contacts get the message.
When _you_ go to Sent items and look at the email, you will see the
Bcc-ed addresses too, because you are the sender. The recipients will
not see the addresses.

my question is how to let each email arriving to each recipient with
the right recipient email shown and only his email shown, as if i
wrote single to him, not batch mailed. i tell u why i need it. i want
to let twittermail.com to relay my post to my different twitter
accounts with different secret email offered by twittermail. so i
wrote a post item and want to batch post to my different twitters, but
twittermail bot likely only recognize correctly the first email
address in the secret email, so all my other secret email addresses,
no matter queued up in the " to" text field or in "cc" or in "bcc",
all result in multiply posts into the first secret email address, ie,,
repeatedly posted to the single first twitter account, exactly all
other secret emails recognized by the bot the same as the first secret
email address, ditched their different destinies.
i also found yahoo's flickr behaved the same. i once email to post
photos to flickr with the secret email flickr offered. when i batch
email with multiply recipients in "to" filed, flickr didn't received
photos but shown photos' description without a photo in place. forward
or multiply recipients in cc also result in the same outcome.
so likely some email posting service demand the posting secret email
exactly has only one recipient. now its my question: how to batch
email and let every email has its only recipient in destiny, no other
cc, no other bcc, etc.
TIA. i badly need ur answer. thx again.
Got a feeling you are asking the impossible. If you were sending
direct to each recipient from Gmail and used Bcc it would work but,
supposing I have understood you properly, you are asking one site to
forward on a command from another site which I don't think is
possible. Use one or the other but I don't think there is a way to
combine the action of one into the other. If I am wrong maybe somebody
else will come up with an answer.

i recognized that if my demand was met, then spam will run all over
without curving. i want to email to each recipient from a contact list
with only the recipient in "To" field so as to let the email solely to
the recipient in sequence. likely had to adopt script/batch commands
to compliment it. but, still, i want to know if its possible in gmail.
TIA.
Why can't the 'to' simply show the GROUP NAME and not the invividual
addresses that make up the group? Then the recipients know they are
being send a message as part of a specific group (which is important
in many cases) but ALL the addresses don't show. The empty 'to' line
doesn't give the same info.
