BCC - the receiver can see the address!

[Ioan Barcanescu]

I put the adresses on th BCC field but when the message is
received the receiver can see the addresses instead of
undisclosed-recipient. (Windows XP Professional, Outlook
from Microsoft OfficeXP Suite)

Does the recipient see more than just his/own address?
Does it also happen when you supply at least one "To" address?
Can you reproduce it over and over again?
Does the same happen when you test it with Outlook Express using the same
account?

If so; contact your mail administrator/ISP to verify the mailserver settings

In addition to Roady's sage reply - it's rare, but not unheard of, for some
older SMTP servers to expose the BCC contents when the TO field is blank.
Also, your message may be blocked as spam. Always put at least something in
your TO field - such as your own email address.
