Look at that email in your Sent folder and verify that his email really was not included in To CC or BCC. Check that all the recipients you did intend sending it to are there. It is possible to select the wrong recipient accidentally if their name or email is close to another alphabetically, and the pop-up list re-sorts or updates as you are clicking it.
