It’s important to note that (as of Mail.app 4.2), adding a BCC UserHeader in this way overwrites any other BCCs you may have added manually to your email, and applies this to all accounts. Still looking for a better way to automatically BCC an email address on a per-account basis.

The link to Cricket’s .mac page no longer works. You get an error message saying that the page does not exist. Is this available somewhere else?
Thanks

Here is a little challenge for anyone that i apple script savvy out there (as I ma not). I have been looking everywhere on the net to find a way to automatically bcc every email that goes out. This script listed above works for me. HOWEVER, this scripts applies it to ALL my accounts. If you are reading this and are tech savvy, would it be possible to tweak the script so that we are given the option of selecting which accounts this happens with?

This would be very, very helpful, much thanks in advance to whoever finds this out.

That link to the Apple Script does not work. Are there alternatives?

The script works…with one catch. It applied the Reply-to to ALL of my mail accounts. I only need the Reply-to in one of my mail accounts. Example: I don’t want the same Reply-to in my School mail account as in my gmail account.

Dave’s suggestion makes no difference to the Reply-to or Bcc fields on my set-up.

It’s a pity the script doesn’t work for me. I Bcc all my emails to my Gmail address.

Dave, that works well for the default reply address, but not so well for the Reply-to or Bcc addresses. At least not on mine.

Rather than having a script to do all this, in Mail – Pref’s – Accounts… for the e-mail address field, just put in all your addresses separated by a comma… this will give you a drop down menu on the compose window that has each of these addresses to select from. No script, no repetitive typing.
