When you get an email and the cc field appears but its blank....

what does this mean? Why does it appear if no one has been cc'd? I've always suspected it appears when someone has been bcc'd, is this correct? I use outlook express by the way.

Correct. Prove it for yourself. Create a second email account if you don't already have one and send youself an email where you are the only person on a bcc'ed "list". You'll see the sender but not your email address

Then check the headers and you'll see your email address if it wasn't there you whouldn't have got the email.
