At home, usually true, but not always. What if someone respons to
somthing you say on the list, and you are in the Cc: field instead
of the To: field? (Ok, so shame on them for sending to the list AND
Cc:ing you..)
A clarification: By RECEIVER i mean:
TO:
CC:
BCC:
I know that procmail dosen't currently handle BCC but a UNIX script
can be written to do so. I'm sorry my earlier wasn't more precice in
definitions.
Actually, the "Bcc:" fields are supposed to be removed by the
MTAs before the final delivery --- after all, that's why they are
called "blind" Cc:'s. Take this message f.i., that I Bcc-ed it to your
address; can you see any "Bcc:" field in it? So, IMO you won't have too
much success trying to filter by "Bcc:"...
