How can I see the email addresses of people I BCC'd in a sent email? I have a verizon e-mail account.

I sent out an invitation, but sent it to myself as "To" and then BCC's the remainder. How can I see the BCC list? It does not show up when I look at the sent email. I only see my own address.

Ordinarily the only place you will see Bcc;d addressees is in your Sent copy. One glaring exception to this is gmail; they redact the Bcc addressees. A solution is to set Thunderbird to save sent messages to a local Sent folder, e.g. under Local Folders.

BCC is Blind Carbon Copy. You are not supposed to see the whole list. That is the reason it is blind. I believe you can CC yourself if you want to see the list, but not with BCC.

I cannot see them in my sent copy, that is where I thought I would be able to. I understand that a BCC is a blind copy, so that the recipients cannot see who else was included on the list, but as the sender I thought I could.

Who is your email provider?

Most relevant is is this an IMAP account. Perhaps Verizon remove them the same way Gmail does. But that is only possible if the account is IMAP.

That's nice, but I do not know and it does not help me!

I don't know either. So how do we find out if your account is IMAP? Or if this is something that Verizon does? The first is something only you can tell us. The second is something you would need to ask Verizon.
