FAQ: How did I receive an email that was not 'TO' me?

SYMPTOMS
An email arrived that does not list your address in the To or CC fields.

CAUSE
This will commonly be a result of someone sending an email to you where you are listed in the BCC field. This will send you a blind carbon copy, an email where you receive a copy but the other recipients do not see your address. This is typically used for privacy reasons.


RESOLUTION
This is a feature of email and not a bug.
