I confess I do not know how to send mail to a group in Mahogany.
In Pine you just enter the group name.  I just tried this and
it does not work in Mahogany.  In Mahogany, it would
seem that you should at least be able to select a group in
an address book and then pick "Compose New Msg", but I just 
tried that and it does not work either.  How do you do it?

The Pine approach, where you just enter the group name in either the To:
field (if you want all addresses to show to everyone) or in the lcc: (if
you do not want the addresses to show but only the group name) is quite
nice.

I can easily conceive of occasions where the following
would be nice: select several names in the address book (e.g., with
ctrl-click in Windows), then left click to get a dialogue to do one of
the following:
i. send To: all of them
ii. bcc: all of them, and optionally include a string in the To: field. 
iii. make a new group from this list of names

Related to this, one ought to be able to add to a group just a nickname.
