Mail BCC field not working?!?!

This is really weird behaviour...
When I send a mail to several recipients, all of them in the BCC field (no one in the TO or CC), it turns out all my receipients have access to the full receipient list!!!
I sent a, hmmm... well... "sensitive" mail the other day to 6 contacts, all in BCC field, and one of them "Replied to All" and everyone else (from my original BCC list) got his reply.
Is this right? I thought the function of the BCC field was, well, HIDE the distribuition list from all the receipients, but if hitting REPLY ALL reveals the list, there's not really much point in BCC, right?
Does this happen to everybody? Is this normal behaviour?
How do I deal with this?
TIA.

RAM,
This is normal behavior when using some (but not all) SMTPs. Without any address in the To field, the Outgoing Server (SMTP) makes this change, and NOT Mail. Put your own name in the To field if there is not another logical address to allow to be visible.

  • When logging in into yahoo mail after typing in password Firefox is adding something, login fails all the time. At yahoo mail Notepad does not work because it is impossible to close the list of items and they cover information, so I have to go to IE.

    When logging in into yahoo mail after typing in password Firefox is adding something, probably remembered password and login fails all the time. At yahoo mail Notepad does not work because it is impossible to close the list of items and they cover information, so I have to go to IE.

    Only when i go to a different browser (like IE) after i clear it , then all that shows up is the pages i visited in IE , that is what bugs me , why is IE browsing history sowing up in Firefox ??
    Basically , i can clear the history in Firefox , and then for a example , go to Craigslist , using IE7 (launching it from a complete different Icon , in other words at that time i never open Firefox) , then after closing out , or even leaving open as it does not seem to matter , i go into Firefox , and hit History , and there is every place i visited in IE7 , on my History in Firefox

    Hi,
    the settings are gone, i guess. But even worse, I cannot get the iPad2 to play Full HD thru the Apple digital AV adaptor using apps that support  (and advertise this), like AVPlayer HD. This definiteley used to work before one of the last iOS upgrades. (I am now at 5.1.1).

  • Fetch new mail messages does not work

    On my notebook the fetch new mail messages does not work
    Settings:
    - Fetch new messages:     every minute
    - Play sound Purr
    I need to us the manual button.
    On my imac it works fine with the same accounts

    My mail sounds are all screwed up. I hear the plane fly when I send an email but when I receive mail, no sound. I have rules set up which worked in Tiger. One rule is for mail to play a message "You have a message from "John Doe" when I receive an email from "John Doe" but it only plays when I send "John Doe" and email. Assbackwards.
    Sometimes when reading new mail, it just disappears. I have to click on it again. I find this version of email to be very flaky!

    The Yahoo mail toolbar is not working. Can't delete, can't move, can't mark as read, etc. It works on Chrome. What's up?

    Of course they would say that. Tell us are there any other problems?
    Some added toolbar and anti-virus add-ons are known to cause
    Firefox issues. '''Disable All of them.'''
    Make sure you have the latest version. The best thing to do is first remove
    the program, then get the full installer.

  • Mail flow is not working Exchange 2010 to 2013 in coexistence mode

    Hi ,
    We are migrating Exchange 2010 sp3 to Exchange 2013.
    mail flow is not working from 2010 to 2013, mails are qued up in smtp relay queueu.
    already added 2010 ip  address  to 2013 receive connector and give anonymous permission.
    but still mails are smtp relay queue.

    Hi Sujith,
    As requested by
    Nithyanandham please post the error from Queue Viewer.
    Few things to check. 
    Please remove IP address from "Default Receive connector" first.
    Ensure both servers can ping by FQDN and it returns correct IP.  i.e.  ping exch2013.contoso.com
    Make sure both exchange server can communicate each other. if possible try to telnet port 25 by FQDN of the Exchange2013 server and try to send an email from exchange2010 using the URL below. if there is any error please post error.
    http://exchange.mvps.org/smtp_frames.htm
    Make sure "Exchange server Authentication" is ticked in your default receive connector properties. If not ticked tick it and restart Transport service and check mail flow again.
    Thanks, MAS

  • Mail search feature not working

    Not a good day today but to top it off, my Mail search feature doesn't seem to be working.  In the past I've praised OSX Mail search features and enjoyed the instant results all whilst bashing the inop feature Outlook and Notes try to utilize.  I'm afraid to say the OSX Lion Mail search feature is completely non-functional.  As I was searching for this issue through the support topics, I noticed this very topic appear then quickly disappear.  I couldn't duplicate the search again for anything.  Hmm.
    Also, what's the dealy with opening a PDF in Mail with Preview and your last 5 PDF's open as well?  Uncool.  And I want Safari to open with my Home page, not the last page I visited.
    At least the Spotlight will still identify the messages I'm wrangling for.
    No need to reply... just need to vent a bit.

    LaraCroft_NYC wrote:
    A lot of things are broken in LION. Not recommended for professionals (only iPad users).
    But here's a way to make better use of Mail Search:
    In the new Mac LION MAIL app, it's not apparent that you can search for any part of any email address the way you could before with any previous OS, for when you type partial email text in the MAIL search field, it simply gives you a drop-down list of wrong or limited suggestions and none of the suggestions are email addresses, but people's names. I don't want to search by name, I want to search by email address. (Maybe I'm the only one who does this.) If two different email addresses have the same associated name (which I have), it chooses the wrong one and searches for the wrong email address!
    But there is a way:
    1) Select the mailbox you want to search (if any).
    2) Type in the search field:
              to: any_string ["return" or "enter"]
              OR
              from: any_string ["return" or "enter"]
    3) Your entry will change from this:
    to this:
    4) Notice that after you press "return" or "enter", your "to:" (or "from:") becomes a pull-down-menu button and the MAIL's silly choices go away. If you click the button, you get this:
    and you can change your choice.
    3) Strangely, "to:" or "from:" MUST be ALL lowercase for this change to take place. (It will still work if "To:" and "FroM:" are all or part uppercase, but the change to a menu button will not occur.)
    4) On the menu bar below the toolbar, you will see the places to search ("All…Selected mailbox…Inbox…Drafts…Sent…Flagged")
    Hello Lara_Croft.
    Again, this time with your original fix.  This works for me..  big help until Apple gets this squared away.
