Some of our websites use an email forwarding script (for about 20,000 users) that I wrote, but I am having troubles with the Bcc: header. The script simply takes mail sent to joeschmoe@domain.com and forwards it to his real email (joeschmoe@yahoo.com for example). The problem that I am having is this: When mail hits my server, I first pull out the email addresses from the headers, compare them to the DB, then resend to their real email. But when someone BCCs the letter to joeschmoe@domain.com, I am unable to pull the address from the BCC field, so the mail is never delivered. After dumping the email contents to a file, I see that the BCC insn't in the headers. I understand that the BCC is supposed to be private, but how can I pull it, so I can forward the mail?
Heres a snippet of what I am using: 
1|my $parser = new MIME::Parser;
2|my $message = $parser->parse(\*STDIN) or die "$!\n";
3|my @to = $message->head->get("To");
4|my @cc = $message->head->get("Cc");
5|my @bcc = $message->head->get("Bcc");

Lines 3 & 4 work just peachy, but its line 5 that doesnt do anything. Anyone have any idears?
Thanks
