That's what I do, too, which suggests an even more stringent mechanism: put the original To/Cc lines into the body of the bcc copy. Yes, it's an extra SMTP, but so is doing it manually.

FWIW, I do not use BCC either (some people use to too much, like instead of mailing lists or alias expansion on server side), but WHEN I do it, I would like it to be more clear. Sure, in some cases I send the first mail, and then forward the sent mail to the "bcc" recipient like "FYI, look what I did send". But then maybe THAT should be the feature (which seems to be similar to what you suggest as well)?

Both of the above are interesting ideas. The latter might be less confusing for recipients since it'll just automate what several of you already do instead of using `Bcc:`. It's also closer to what MailMate can already do. In fact, I think it might be possible to create a bundle command which offered some kind of “Send and Forward” command, but to really work well then it would probably also require me to add a bit of functionality. I'll give it some thought.
