+This can cause blind recipients to
+inadvertently reply to all of the sighted recipients of the
+original message, revealing that they received a blind copy.
+On the other hand, since a normal reply to a message sent
+via a \*(lqBcc:\*(rq field
+will generate a reply only to the sender of the original message,
+it takes extra effort in most mailers to reply to the included
