This is also a common action of many spam-aware mailers (the users,
that is). Some people want to send something out to five or ten of
their friends, or maybe all of their clients. We get something like
this:
From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
[Bcc: you and me and Harry make three]
I've known people who used that too, so if I were to send something
out to a few friends who I didn't want names to go across the 'net to
everyone, I could:
From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Bcc: [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED]
I'd leave the To: blank, 'cept for the fact that most mail servers
(probably complying with RFCs) bounce mail back that have no To:
address...
-tom!
