Package: mutt Version: 1.5.17+20080114-1 Severity: normal
>From /etc/Muttrc: # Uncomment if your MTA does not strip Bcc: headers. # (exim4 and postfix strip them, exim(3) does not.) #unset write_bcc By default, I would expect that if I sent an e-mail and bcc'ed someone in, then whoever I was sending the mail to wouldn't know. Given the default MTA on debian is exim, sadly it seems that the default behaviour is for this to happen though :( This is in contrast with how other MUAs in debian handle BCC. It's a rather surprising default. I know the comment in the file says exim4 strips them. I'm assuming that is a configuration setting, because my work's mailserver is not stripping them and is exim4 (upgraded from exim3 some time ago as part of an upgrade of debian). -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.24.3.080310 Locale: LANG=en_NZ.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_NZ.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages mutt depends on: ii libc6 2.7-9 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libgdbm3 1.8.3-3 GNU dbm database routines (runtime ii libgnutls13 2.0.4-3 the GNU TLS library - runtime libr ii libidn11 1.4-1 GNU libidn library, implementation ii libncursesw5 5.6+20080203-1 Shared libraries for terminal hand ii libsasl2-2 2.1.22.dfsg1-18 Cyrus SASL - authentication abstra Versions of packages mutt recommends: ii exim4 4.69-2 meta-package to ease Exim MTA (v4) ii exim4-daemon-light [mail-tran 4.69-2 lightweight Exim MTA (v4) daemon ii locales 2.7-9 GNU C Library: National Language ( ii mime-support 3.40-1.1 MIME files 'mime.types' & 'mailcap -- no debconf information -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.24.3.080310 Locale: LANG=en_NZ.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_NZ.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages mutt depends on: ii libc6 2.7-9 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libgdbm3 1.8.3-3 GNU dbm database routines (runtime ii libgnutls13 2.0.4-3 the GNU TLS library - runtime libr ii libidn11 1.4-1 GNU libidn library, implementation ii libncursesw5 5.6+20080203-1 Shared libraries for terminal hand ii libsasl2-2 2.1.22.dfsg1-18 Cyrus SASL - authentication abstra Versions of packages mutt recommends: ii exim4 4.69-2 meta-package to ease Exim MTA (v4) ii exim4-daemon-light [mail-tran 4.69-2 lightweight Exim MTA (v4) daemon ii locales 2.7-9 GNU C Library: National Language ( ii mime-support 3.40-1.1 MIME files 'mime.types' & 'mailcap -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
