I'm sorry for the multiple emails on this, but I'm afraid that I'll forget
this thought if I don't mention it now.  I'll try not to send any more
messages until I get a reply (or at least until morning!).

If this isn't the way it's supposed to work, wouldn't it be best for the
X-ASSP-Intended-For line to:
1) Be written to the mail file but NOT passed onto the mta stream?
2) Be removed from the stream sent to the MTA in the event of a resend?

If things are broken, I'm sure we'll (ahem, Thomas) will work out a fix,
but if this is the expected behavior, I think we've been giving away who
bcc messages have been sent to all along.  Consider changing the
functionality??
