There isn't.  This is intentional; all messages should have a named
recipient.  This isn't just for mail delivery; it's so recipients know
who the message is primarily intended for.  Using "undisclosed
recipients" instead clearly indicates that the sender intended for a
distribution list of people who are not explicitly named--they need
not and perhaps should not know about each other.

If you don't want that, you can name yourself as the recipient.
