This is easy with *nix.
Q ***GUI*** listname WITH NOMAIL FOR *@*
Save the message you get back to "nomail_data" (say).
grep @ nomail_data | sed -e '1d' -e 's/\*\*\*HDR.../ /' -e '2s/ //' \
-e 's/$/,/' -e '$d' > nomail_addys
The above is a single line command. The "\" at the end of the 1st line
is a continuation character.
nomail_addys will be a list of addresses:
[log in to unmask],
[log in to unmask],
[log in to unmask],
[...]
Paste this list into the Bcc: field of your mail program, delete the
comma at the end of the last address, and send off your message.
HTH,
