Showing BCC recipient on the To: line

Resolved Showing BCC recipient on the To: line

First of all, great plugin! We just moved to it from using sendmail and are happy with the plugin and CMandrill.

A couple of things: we use FSForm for a lot of form submissions. I noticed that the RSForm email process kept reverting to sendmail rather than Mandrill. I think we solved this by making the Cmandrill #1 in the system extensions.

We have another problem though where in RSForm Pro, we specify that an email confirmation goes to the user and a copy is BCC'ed to one of our staff as well. This worked great with sendmail, but now with CMandrill, both the user and the staff email address are showing up on the To: line in the email that the client receives.

Any thoughts on what could be causing this and how to fix it?

Thanks again.

Interesting.
Back when I created Mandrill there was no option to use the bcc field. That is why I was adding the bcc address to the "to" field. I also thought that no matter how many addresses in the "to" field each user will receive with just 1 address in the "to" field? That is not the case? It should be actually.

Now according to the docs:
https://mandrillapp.com/api/docs/messages.html

the bcc_address field can contain just one e-mail. I'll need to figure out what should happen with multiple emails in the bcc field. Will let you know once I have more info/fix.

Daniel

No, it is definitely not the case. Both emails appear when you receive them.

Hey Dave,
could you try the following. Go to plugins\system\mandrill\mailer\mail.php

on line 584 you'll find this:



		if(count($this->bcc) > 0) {

			$recipients = array_merge($recipients, $this->bcc);

		}

change it to



		if(count($this->bcc) > 0) {

$mandrill->message['preserve_recipients'] = false;

			$recipients = array_merge($recipients, $this->bcc);

		}

Does this solve the problem?
