While that is true, what if the message was sent like this:

to: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
BCC: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

When the message comes in, Adam will have no idea if it came to adam@ or
whatever because the To field will not reflect his name. Imail uses an XRCPT
(something like that) but it ONLY reflects where the message was written to,
which I think stinks because I think it's obvious where it was written to. I
want a header that actually reflects the "ENVELOPE" of the message so that
BCC's etc can be picked up...

Just my two bits.
