Can I check who else was in BCC in an email?



HI,
If i receive a mass email and I know my address was put in BCC, is there anyway I can see who else the mail was sent to?

Thanks in advance! :)

    No - that’s what BLIND copy means.

    Only the sender knows who it was sent to. You may be able to trace the sender based on the IP in the mail header, but it’s more likely that the mail was sent by a spam zombie.

    no you can’t. If you could then there would be no purpose to the BCC. Everything would be a CC.

    Nope. All you can do is ask the sender for that info

    No. The purpose of the BCC (Blind Carbon Copy) field is to be able to send an e-mail so that no one else can see the content of that field. If there was a way to see the field - when it is for things you don’t want seen - then the field would be pointless. So there is no way to see the other people in the BCC list…

    Only if you know braille. Duh, BCC means blind carbon copy - why would you think you could see it?

    As everyone else in the thread has already answered, you can’t. It’s impossible.

    When the person sent the email, people in the BCC list were sent a copy but there was no record in the emails sent to the other users of who it is.

    This is a pretty stupid question really.
