andre i sent a mail from one mail domain to my another mail domain marking my id as BCC.
I received the mail in by inbox. But my e-mail ID was not displayed. It means the mail is addressed to me as BCC
If the header of BCC is removed howcome the mail is delivered to me not in the TO & CC filed.
How it is identified that mail is marked as BCC to me
this works through the "envelope recipient".
it is lika a regular letter - you have an envelope with the real recipient - and the letter inside the envelope can contain different information.
and thats how smtp works - the information who gets a mail is transfered from smtp-server to smtp-server by this adresses. this information must not be inside the mail itself. and your mail program gets only the letter - the envelope is thrown away by the smtp server after the delivery.

see this thread and Wietse's (postfix developer) answer:

in short words: you can't. not with postfix - not with any other software. bcc: gets converted to envelope-recipients at the sending mta.
