1779399 - Auto-BCC to myself has no effect

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1777683

(Thunderbird :: Message Compose Window, defect)

Description

[Harald Dunkel]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/103.0.5060.114 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce:

I have configured both "Place a copy in Sent folder" and "BCC these email addresses: [e-mail]" in Copies & Folders.

Actual results:

On sending an EMail my address is not added to BCC:. I don't get a copy via smtp, either. The sent Email is added to the Sent folder, though. The advanced search doesn't show me additional copies of the EMail.

Dropping the Sent-folder option doesn't fix BCC.

Expected results:

I should have got a copy of the EMail. Thunderbird's filters should have put the EMail into the right folder.

Harald, can you please try Thunderbird support first ?

Note that if [e-mail] is also a CC recipient of the sent message, auto-BCC [e-mail] may not be added (by design).

• Exact version ≡ > Help > About Thunderbird?
• POP or IMAP?
• Problem occurs with ≡ > Help > Troubleshoot Mode…?
• Did you use the 'From' dropdown in Write window to choose sender?
• Did the auto-cc address appear in Write window's Bcc field?
• Please add proper steps to reproduce, each thing you did before sending in numbered list.
