sorry about that. i was being stupid.
do the intended bcc recipients receive the mail?
if not, then it's not being recognised as a header.
maybe there's a blank line before it or the line
endings are "wrong"?
i'd suggest bcc'ing a message to yourself. if you
receive the message, save it to a file and examine
the file using od or xxd or something to look for anything
wierd. what editor do you use to compose the messages?
do you have edit_hdrs set in your .muttrc?
mutt wouldn't even be sending the bcc header to exim
if it recognised it as a bcc header. sendmail does
have an option to read the headers in a message given
to it, work out the recipients from the headers and
then send everything except the bcc header but mutt
doesn't rely on that because sendmail isn't the
only mta so exim can't be the problem.
