I understand that to send an email your home server connects with a foreign server. They talk back and forth to identify each other. Then information is transmitted. Then they sign off. This all takes about 30 seconds to a minute.

How is it then that you can transmit 49 Blind Carbon Copies during this transaction Whose servers are being used? Why can't you send a thousand (or a million) Blind Carbon Copies through on this transaction? Does MLK segregate email addresses so that only email addresses that are addressed to that same foreign server go out at one time? If all 49 of my email messages must go through different servers - how does that work? What is the limit on BCC for one email?

I am just trying to understand. Any help will be appreciated.

Hi John

When you are using MLK's SMTP server then it does not add multiple recipients (using BCC), rather each message is sent individually to each recipient of the message (as all mail servers must do).
