CC stands for carbon copy.  It tells everyone involved that the 
message is intended for the To recipient, but that everyone in the 
CC field has received a copy.

BCC stands for blind carbon copy.  The idea is that BCC recipients 
get copies, but no one knows about it.

In all cases, the email program shouldn't include the BCC header when 
sending.  I did use a program (ccMail by Lotus) about 10 years ago that 
DID actually include the BCC field (which could be quite embarrassing).

I need to know if the BCC dat is erased in SMTP stage or only in POP3/IMAP
stage.
Suppose John Doe send me an e-mail message with some other adresses in BCC
field. Is this field BCC erased/changed by his SMTp server or by my own
POP3/IMAP server?
If it's erased/changed in my own POP3/IMAP server then I would like to be
able to configure it in such way that BCC data is visible to me.
Any hints?

The BCC will get removed at the first SMTP server, some mail clients 
even create a new connection for each BCC to send the message for more 
security :)
