Not quite an answer to your question, since I'm not even using the  
address book here, but perhaps you should be using a listserv to send  
out your mails? It's a bit more secure, since none of the members will  
see each others addresses unless they post a reply, and quite a bit  
more practical. Barring that I suggest you take use of the Bcc: and Cc:  
field to get around the limitation you're encountering.

Please shoot me if I'm talking out of my bum.
