Hi Everyone,

I'm looking for a bit of history and discussion of the correct behavior of MTAs with respect to Bcc headers.

Ticket #185 <https://gitlab.com/muttmua/mutt/issues/185> asserts that Courier MTA doesn't remove the Bcc header when recipients are passed on the command line. I'm currently not in a position to verify this behavior, so I'm assuming the ticket is correct.

It looks like Mutt provides $write_bcc, which allows the removal of the Bcc header from the message. However, I believe this will also remove it from the Fcc copy.

The ticket asks if there is a way to turn off passing the recipients on the command line. I'm wondering if this would be a generally useful option.

Thanks for any advice or input!
