I occasionally send an e-mail message to approximately 130
recipients and, because I want to hide the entire list from
the recipients, I put my own address in the TO field, and
put the others as BCC recipients.

Because my ISP doesn't allow more than 50 recipients for
any one message, Emailer automatically resends the message
as many times as necessary to get them all sent, in this
case 3 times.

Usually, this method works well. However, one recipient has
an address in the copper.net domain, and my e-mails to her
always bounce. It seems that copper.net has a "missing
header filter" that rejects incoming messages that have
nothing in either the TO or FROM fields. Checking the
returned headers in the bounce message, the FROM field is
certainly there, but I don't see any TO field.

My guess is that when Emailer automatically sends the
second and third batches of BCC messages (and maybe even
the first batch), it omits the TO field (with my own
address in it) from the headers of the BCC recipients.
Thus, the "missing header filter" failure at copper.net.

Does anyone know a way around this problem? Is there a way
to make Emailer include a TO address in the headers of
messages to BCC recipients?

Thanks, Jim
