[PLUG] BCCs potentially exposed


I just learned on the Evolution list that some servers add the header
Apparently-to: identifying BCC recipients.

In Windows, I have always used Pegasus as my MUA.  Pegasus sends out
separate mails whenever there is a BCC, to insure security.  I thought
all MUAs did this.

Are the other Linux MUAs broken like Evolution?  Is it a flaw in the
standard that permits this?

In my work BCCs and their privacy are critical.  It's a "don't use this
software for serious work" issue.
