When is 'undisclosed-recipients' shown? Can I check who I sent the message to?

I wrote an email without putting in anyone for the 'TO:' or 'CC:' fields. The BCC: field only had my own email address in it.

I accidentally sent this email before I had sorted out the TO: and CC: fields properly.

In my sent email and it had 'undisclosed-recipients' in the To: field.

I found this disconcerting, since I wasn't SURE if I hadn't put anything in the CC: or TO: fields. I worried I may have sent a rough, poorly worded email to someone and that could backfilre.

Am I right that whenever 'undisclosed-recipients' is shown in the To: field and I sent the email, I can check in that sent email who was in the BCC: field and that should re-assure me who had actually recieved a copy of that email.

Clarity in this area would be VERY helpful.

Welcome to Google! Google very kindly remove the recipients from the BCC list on the email stored in your sent folder on their server and replace it with undisclosed recipients.

You essentially have two choices. 1. Use another mail provider that has a more down to earth storage policy of your data. As far as I am aware only Google has this odd quirk.

2. Change the location copies of send mail are stored to the local folders sent folder in account settings. Google will still make their copy and remove data from it, but Thunderbird will make a copy and store it locally which is not modified.
