Check the RFCs, I think 822 and 1123 have something to say about this
and there may be something more recent.

I believe that some MTAs will strip the BCC entirely, some will leave
the header but strip its content, and others will leave the BCC in for
addressees in the BCC.  IIRC all conform to the RFC which is very loose.
