Transport Rule for BCC emails

I'm trying to create a transport rule in Exchange 2013 to achieve the following:
If someone sends an email with x@mydomain.ca in BCC, I want to add x@mydomain.ca in the To field.

We need to do this because the system we use to process these emails cannot process emails when they come in via BCC.
So we need to find a way to modify the message or forward a copy with x@mydomain.ca in the To field insead of BCC.

In the transport rules, there are options for "To/CC box contains this person" but nothing for BCC.

Does anyone have experience with this kind of requirement?

Thanks in advance!

There is no option for Bcc as a condition in the transport rules. If a condition is met then you can have exchange Bcc someone, but unfortunately there is no way to apply rules based on Bcc being a condition as you are attempting.

The closest you can get is

AnyOfRecipientAddressContains: This condition matches messages that contain the specified words in the To, Cc, or Bcc fields of the message.

AnyOfRecipientAddressMatches: This condition matches messages where text patterns in the To, Cc, or Bcc fields of the message match a specified regular expression.

so it will match the user no matter where he is but you cannot create a rule to be applied ONLY if the recipient is in BCC

This question needs an answer!
