Is there a way you can think of to simply determine whether the Bcc field was empty or not? How do I view the list of bcc recipients on a email I sent out? I want to check to see who I sent the email to. Sandy The specifics depend on which email program you are using. IT personell can find out who the BCC recipients are. Required approval at the highest level of the company to interogate the archive and then the searches had to be properly specified. It would be wrong to do so. But oh well.
Joseph BCC has a very useful purpose. It actually reduces spam. How does using BCC help reduce spam? No problem. Leo, I can see the list of email addresses of the undisclosed recipients for 2 seconds on my iPad, everytime I open that email, before it turned into the undisclosed recepients name.
If they can be seen, there must be a way extracting them, I strongly feel. Hi, if I look into my sent item — the email sent shows undisclosed recipients. How can I see whom I emailed? I can only imagine that happening if there were some bug in the email sending program or website.
I would say the same for the case where the BCC list appears momentarily on the iPad. Mark Jacobs I was under the same impression as you, but this is what happened that made me post a comment:. MSN Internet Explorer Go to sent mail, click on the small down arrow up by the sent by name, listed will be all of the BCC recipients below.
BCCs are not in anyway visible to the recipients unless for some reason, there was a bug in the email program or webmail sending routine. However, some email programs allow the sender of the email to see the BCCs. If it ever does the sending email program is broken.

I just want to know if what I received is to me only of if the sender is letting someone else in on the conversation using Bcc.
I sent an email out today. Emails with Bccs and no address in the TO: field are sent just as well as if you had included an address in the To: field. It gives a more professional appearance if you include your email address in the To field. I have read the articles as well as all comments. I believe I am on topic. The SMTP server which sends the email would get the email addresses as they need them to know where to send the emails to.
The BCCed email addresses would be stripped off the header at that point and no longer be visible to anyone else. Your outgoing mail service SMTP can see to whom you send mails. The recipient mail server cannot see BCC lines. But of course they could see that an identical message is being delivered to several people if all those people are on the same mail server.
Actually Gaurav the answer is valid. Honestly, I just wanted to commend your patience Leo in answering so many questions on the same topic by those who had clearly not read article or previous comments. You have far more patience than I. It looks much more professional that way. I used the BCC to send several recipients some email.. Is this how my BBC recipients are seeing it too.. If so.. Thank you for any help you can provide me.
Thats how BCC works. One is a copy of the mail you sent with BCC listed and one is the copy that was sent, and then arrived in your account since you sent to yourself without.
Or you could look around for one of these email programs that does it the way you want it done. If you have a large list, it might be difficult to send individual emails. Thunderbird, Outlook and probably some other email programs allow you to send individual emails by using the Mail Merge function. OK, I get it. But somehow he included people who I Bccd. He added them as CCs. How is that possible? Another possibility is that he hacked your email account which, unfortunately, seems to be the greater possibility.
So a reply all will go only to the To:, From:, and Cc: lines.
