Hi,

Could you please let me know is it possible to get email address from the
BCC field. Is there a way to extract BCC values from recived mail not from
sent mail.

Thanks in Advance.

Regards,
Pavitra

Not possible to extract from a received message who was blind copied. The
whole point behind a bcc is that the recipient of the message isn't supposed
to know who else received a copy of said message.

How are you going to extract the value of a header that doesn't exist?

BCC results in the sending client sending a single email to a single
recipient email address; one email for each address in the list. Since the
receiving server only sees a single recipient, instead of a list of
recipients, there is no way to extract this information; it does not exist
in the sent message. Which is the whole point of BCC.
