This is the Sendmail TA - you'll probably have better luck with this Question in the General E-Mail TA, or one of the Micro$oft TAs. You can post a (free) request in the Community Support TA (https://www.experts-exchange.com/Community_Support/) and ask a Moderator to move this Question to a different TA. Be sure to include a link to this Question.

When sending, or try to send, an e-mail in Outlook Express using Bcc I get error 0x800CCC69, "Undisclosed-Recipient" is a "Failing Address".  I used this format for years, but when I started using peoplepc as my server I now get this error message.  Does this mean I will not be able to use Bcc ever again?
Hmmm...well, that may be closer to a sendmail question.

I suspect that Outlook is configured (or hardcoded) to put the string "undisclosed-receipients;" in the TO: field of the E-Mail when all the recipients have been BCCed. And I suspect that PeoplePC has configured their mailservers to reject this header, probably to stop spammers using their systems.

If I'm right, then one way around this it to put YOUR E-Mail address in the TO: field and everyone else in the BCC: field.
Glad to hear (in Feedback) that it worked.
