I have done some more testing and found out much more about this problem
and learned a bit more about the send-hook mechanism. It is setting
global variables, so you have to set the header on each sending mail
(one way or the other) to get correct settings all the time.
So, the problem turns out to be a little bit different and maybe mutt
works correctly as it should be, but I would like to work it differently
:-)

The bcc header is set correctly (no matter if an alias or typed in), but
is only valid for all following mails and NOT the one I am composing
at that moment. So, I have a delayed reaction of one mail composition.

I have attached a reduced muttrc, mail_alias and a version file.

The most important part is this:
send-hook '~t my@address\.de' 'unmy_hdr bcc'
send-hook '!~t my@address\.de' 'my_hdr Bcc: [EMAIL PROTECTED]'

Intended is a BCC to 'my@address\.de' on all mails except on mails that
are sent to 'my@address\.de' in the TO field.

On starting mutt, use 'm' and try the following addresses in the 'To:'
question (subject does not matter, abort mail in composer editor):
 my                no bcc
 [EMAIL PROTECTED]    no bcc
 [EMAIL PROTECTED]     bcc
 my                no bcc
 [EMAIL PROTECTED]    no bcc
 [EMAIL PROTECTED]     bcc
 [EMAIL PROTECTED]    no bcc
 [EMAIL PROTECTED]    bcc

Any solutions for this problem? Is this behavior intended?
