Gnus does not send the Bcc header neither to the recipient in To: nor to
the recipient in Bcc:.

Example:

I am sending this email from Gnus:

  To: asjoegren@gmail.com
  Bcc: asjo@mcom.com
  Subject: Test of Bcc
  From: asjo@koldfront.dk (Adam Sjøgren)

As you can see, Gnus does NOT send the Bcc-header, it sends the email
without the Bcc-header to the two recipients.

It does, however, store the Bcc header in the *local copy* of the email,
so *you* can see that you did in fact Bcc.


  Best regards,
