Yes, but don't you think it would be nice if Entourage left the group name in the To: field of the "saved sent message" so that you could resend it if necessary without the mental gymnastics of trying to remember who you sent it to? When you explicitly put a name in the BCC: filed it is still in that field of the "saved sent message." So Entourage is doubly inconsistent; it puts the group name in the To: field of the sent message and the actual recipients addresses in the BCC: field of the sent message and the recipients mail server/client keeps the group name in the To: header and removes the BCC: header as it should, but Entourage does not save either piece of information in the copy of the message in the "sent items" folder. Of course this is only an issue when the check box "Don't show addresses when sending to group" is checked. I have sent the issue to MS, if others think this is a concern you can add your request to the feedback line.
