I file all 'bcc's into a no-mans-land folder -- if someone doesn't want people to know how I received their message, then it can well wait until I get to it. Considering many mailing list managers add info like X-Sent-To or other headers, I find that even BCC'd messages usually get filtered properly. Then again I use GNUS, so perhaps it does a better job of filtering than procmail. -derek Jerry Feldman <gaf at blu.org> writes: > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- > Hash: SHA1 > > Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii > > The ^TO_ does work nicely, but falls down when people use bcc.
