I am doing a discovery on my Exchange 2003 server. I need to find all messages where a certain email address was listed as a bcc entry. I plan to restore the database to a recovery group and perform the search from there. I am hoping someone could suggest a method for looking for the bcc entries.

“In keeping with the privacy intended by blind copies, BCC is regarded as an envelope property rather than a message property. Accordingly, the corresponding header field and its contents are removed when the message is delivered, and you should always expect the BCC property to be empty on a received message” ----------Refer to <BCC Property> I don’t think you can search the messages based on the BCC entry Yet, you can try to extract email by using ExMerge based on keyword in subject of email or by specific Attachment nameJames Luo TechNet Subscriber Support (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/subscriptions/ms788697.aspx) If you have any feedback on our support, please contact tngfb@microsoft.com
