BCCed addresses aren't visible in the headers. That's why they're BLIND CC.
Of course, but the received headers etc show it passed though the list.
The lack of personal email addresses in the headers doesn't prove they
weren't there. All the headers tell us is that he definitely posted to the
list. (But we knew that!)
If the headers say it went though the list, _that_ copy went through the list,
_not_ to your personal address (well, not from him; of course the list
delivered it to you).
Your interpretation doesn't explain why I received a copy sent to my
personal email address. I read this via the newsgroup comp.lang.python, not
the mailing list, and I'm not subscribed to the email mailing list. If the
OP had merely BCCed the mailing list, I wouldn't have received a copy in my
personal inbox.
Fair point. Though I thought I only got one copy, might be wrong.
