% Well, precisely, what happens ? 

Since the addressing of the list was done in bcc, the contents of which
you can't see and which [theoretically] appear nowhere else, you won't
see your filter trigger and the mail will fall through the intended rule
to some other -- perhaps the bit bucket, for particularly fascist
anti-spam configurations.
