Title: sending emails to my members - admin address in to field
Post by: Chris on December 18, 2002, 05:15:09 AM
"When I send email to my members, they receive it but the email is addressed FROM admin@mysite.com and sent TO admin@mysite.com. - Why does the TO field show the administrator's email address and not the email addresses of my members?  What's wrong?"

This is not actually a problem.  Emails are sent like this by design.  Recipient addresses are placed in the BCC (Blind Carbon Copy) field of emails sent by 4images.  When an email address is put in the BCC field, the email is delivered to that address but is not displayed anywhere in the message or email headers.  In this way, 4images protects the identities of recipients by not revealing their email addresses to the other recipients.
