[Zope] MailHost and Bcc

[Peter Bengtsson]

I doubt that the MailHost supports bcc with the send() function.
I for one don't use the MailHost's send() function. I just use it's 
_send() function for the actual sending and I create the email message 
manually using the email package in python. But that's a whole different 
story.

If you look up the Secure MailHost product I think it has a function 
called secureSend() or something which I think has a bcc parameter that 
you might find useful.
