I have a user who wants to create a private DL (distribution list) in his contacts folder. When he sends the email using the DL he doesn't want anyone to know who is receiving the email. Any ideas on how to do this or if it is possible?

I've never tried using the BCC field with a distribution group before....may want to try that (works with normal mail recipients).

It is relatively simple.
Make the distribution list in the address book as required.
Click the button for a new e-mail message.
Click the button next to TO: for the address book
Enter the distribution list in the box BCC: which is (often) normally not shown.
Leave TO: and CC: blank.
The recipient will know the sender and not the other addressees.
Good luck.
