Apparently-To: Headers

1997-01-04 08:38:01
I often get (junk) mail that has dozens of "Apparently-To:" headers.  One
way I filter messages with more than ten "Apparently-To:" headers:

:0:
* -10^0
* 1^1 ^Apparently-To:
junkmail

Am I correct that sendmail adds Apparently-To: when it doesn't get a To:,
Cc:, Or Bcc: in a message it is delivering?

How does the sender (spammer) send out a message without including a
recipient field (without using To:, Cc:, or Bcc:)?

Does this mean the spammer is lame and not sending their message correctly?

Thanks,
