I think that's standard. When you bcc to a group the To: field is empty. It's actually transmitted as part of the message. I believe you'd need to send separate emails to each of the recipients.

BCC stands for Blind Carbon Copy, from the good old days of mechanical typewriters. It means send to these recipents but do not show their names or addresses.

Suppose we sent to user1 and user2 using BCC. Then user1 didn't know about user2. After checking user1's mail, we can see taht user1 mail id in their address field (see from normal mail like LotusNote). How can i display their own id inn address field using BCC?
