Hallo Jeanny,

On Mon, 9 Jun 2003 11:31:39 -0500GMT (9-6-03, 18:31 +0200, where I
live), you wrote:

You can't do that. Not for incoming messages at least, since you as
recipient have no clue whatsoever whether anybody gets the message
BCC'd. That's the essence of a BCC.
However, unless your secretary is spying on you on behalf of someone
else, it's a safe assumption to make that she won't BCC any message
addressed to you to any third parties. ;-)

The problem whether you are the only recipient of a message can be
solved in two ways: with regexp or without regexp. Since I prefer the
latter, this is the way to go:
Create two AB-groups, one named 'Jeanny' and the other 'Michelle'
Add all of Michelle's AB-entries to the group Michelle.
Create for all of your addresses AB-entries (you can add all of your
  addresses to one entry if you prefer) and add those entries to the
  group 'Jeanny'

Create an incoming filter that checks for Michelle's address as
sender, at the advanced tab check 'Address(es) must be listed in
Address Book', select as choice 'All recipients' and select that they
must occur in the group 'Jeanny'. Since you're the only one listed in
that group, the only messages that trigger the filter will be those
that Michelle sends to you. Even when she CC's a message to your
private address because of the urgency of the message.

Do the same for an outgoing filter. Only let it check for you as
sender. (That seems obvious in your outbox, but what about messages
that you redirect to Michelle?) And check whether all recipients are
listed in the AB group 'Michelle'
Contrary to the incoming filter, this outgoing filter will catch
BCC's.
