How to see mail id in bcc
The age-old question!
Unfortunately, it's not possible to see the email addresses in the BCC (Blind Carbon Copy) field by default, as it's intended to be a private and confidential list of recipients. The BCC field is meant to allow you to send emails to a group of people without revealing their email addresses to each other.
However, there are a few workarounds to achieve this:
Method 1: Use a third-party email client or plugin
Some email clients, such as Mozilla Thunderbird or Microsoft Outlook, offer plugins or extensions that can reveal the BCC recipients. For example:
- In Thunderbird, you can install the "BCC Revealer" plugin.
- In Outlook, you can use the "BCC Viewer" add-in.
Method 2: Use a script or code
If you're comfortable with programming, you can use a script or code to extract the BCC recipients. For example:
- In Python, you can use the
email
library to parse the email and extract the BCC recipients. - In JavaScript, you can use a library like
emailjs
to parse the email and extract the BCC recipients.
Here's an example Python code snippet:
import email
with open('email.eml', 'r') as f:
email_message = email.message_from_file(f)
bcc_recipients = []
for recipient in email_message.get_all('Bcc'):
bcc_recipients.append(recipient)
print(bcc_recipients)
Method 3: Use a email viewer or analyzer tool
There are also third-party tools that can help you view the BCC recipients, such as:
- Email Examiner: A tool that can extract and display the BCC recipients.
- Email Analyzer: A tool that can analyze and display the email headers, including the BCC recipients.
Please note that some email providers, such as Gmail, may not allow you to view the BCC recipients due to security and privacy concerns.
