STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Commercial
Internet System version 2.0.
This problem was first corrected in Windows NT 4.0 Service Pack 4.0 and Windows NT Server 4.0, Terminal Server Edition Service Pack 4.
MORE INFORMATION
Most e-mail clients hide the BCC information when a message is submitted;
however, there are a few clients that do not hide this information.
Therefore, in a few cases there is the potential for the MCIS 2.0 IMS to
send messages containing the BCC address information when the MCIS 2.0
server resides on a Windows NT 4.0 SP3 computer.
