Overview

Blind Carbon Copy Field

The Bcc field inherits from StructuredField and handles the Bcc: header field in the email.

Sending bcc to a mail message will instantiate a Mail::Field object that has a BccField as its field type. This includes all Mail::CommonAddress module instance metods.

Only one Bcc field can appear in a header, though it can have multiple addresses and groups of addresses.

Examples:

mail = Mail.new
mail.bcc = 'Mikel Lindsaar <[email protected]>, [email protected]'
mail.bcc    #=> ['[email protected]', '[email protected]']
mail[:bcc]  #=> '#<Mail::Field:0x180e5e8 @field=#<Mail::BccField:0x180e1c4
mail['bcc'] #=> '#<Mail::Field:0x180e5e8 @field=#<Mail::BccField:0x180e1c4
mail['Bcc'] #=> '#<Mail::Field:0x180e5e8 @field=#<Mail::BccField:0x180e1c4

mail[:bcc].encoded   #=> ''      # Bcc field does not get output into an email
mail[:bcc].decoded   #=> 'Mikel Lindsaar <[email protected]>, [email protected]'
mail[:bcc].addresses #=> ['[email protected]', '[email protected]']
mail[:bcc].formatted #=> ['Mikel Lindsaar <[email protected]>', '[email protected]']
