  • Microsoft Exchange Client 4.0

This article was previously published under Q146401

SUMMARY

The Bcc field headers are stripped from all messages when they are sent out using Microsoft Exchange client, version 4.0. Users who received the message because they were specified on the Bcc line will not see the other users specified on this line. This functionality is designed into the product.

MORE INFORMATION

There is one exception to this functionality. When you run Microsoft Exchange MS-DOS client, version 4.0, and you include yourself in the Bcc list of recipients, the entire Bcc list is present when you receive your own message. However, the Bcc list does not appear in the message that the other Bcc list recipients receive.
