is there anyway to see the Bcc: field on an Exchange server before it strips it?
I assume your incoming mail server has access to that info at one time as the 
mail is passing thru it?

thanks

You name is probably in the BCC field.

not really exchange related. i was wondering how spammers are able to
forge the TO: header of an email so that you get the email even though
its not addressed to you.

like if i'm joe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx, i get an email to my inbox addressed
only to bob@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx or bob@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx?
is it that the envelope headers are addessed to me but the email TO:
headers are changed?

Is this this the same thing as when you get spam and the TO: headers say
"undisclosed recipients"?

thanks
