Oh.  I got the report slightly wrong.

It seems that in older versions of mutt, any Bcc header would be
passed to the sendmail program, whereas in 1.5.9-2 (and presumably
later versions), the write_bcc option is only made use of when saving
a message to a mailbox (in mutt_write_rfc822_headers called from
mutt_write_fcc in sendlib.c), but not when being sent to sendmail.
Therefore, there is no reason to switch off the write_bcc option and
it would be good to leave it with its default on setting so that the
saved messages have full headers.
