How to send a message to an address book list as "bcc", not as "to"?

I have various lists of different people on my personal TB addressbook. If I press "write" (to a particular group), TB by default creates a message with all the recipients in "To" mode - i.e. all the recipients will see each other's email addresses. How do I change the default message setting to "bcc" without having to change every single entry in the email manually?

Chosen solution

Do not start a message in the address book. It is not the best place to do that. That is what the Write window is for. Open the Write window and turn on the contact sidebar by pressing F9. Select the contact, contacts or list that you want to send to and then use one of the ADD TOO: buttons at the bottom of the sidebar. Hold the control key while clicking items to select multiple items.
