Secret 2662 (Mail.app always bcc) is wrong, must use Secret 2458 instead #98

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. Use secret #2662 to set an always-bcc addr:

$ defaults write com.apple.mail UserHeaders.Bcc bcc@example.com

2. Restart Mail.app & send an email

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

I expect "bcc@example.com" to get a Bcc of the email.

This does not happen.  This setting doesn't work (but you can set it 
differently, see below).

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

Mail.app 4.4 (1082)

Please provide any additional information below.

You can set an always-bcc address via Secret 2458:

$ defaults write com.apple.mail UserHeaders '{"Bcc" = "bcc@example.com"; }'

This DOES work, however it suffers from Issue 97 - once this is set, Mail.app 
ignores any Bcc addrs you add in the mail itself
