I entirely disagree.  I was thinking quite a bit about the "upload to
the IMAP server and then send it via SMTP while telling it who to
send to", and I actually don't like it.

Certainly in the XSENT I implemented, once it has sent, it sets an
\XSent flag on the immutable message.  Not an \XSent-to-one-address.

The message with an \XSent flag is a record that it was sent to the
addresses listed in that header.

And the copy that went "over the wire" up to the IMAP server is your
record of what you did.  That _should_ include the BCC, so you can go
back later and check who you sent it to.  Obviously, the BCC should
be stripped as it gets handed over to the delivery agent.
