So i am doing a group project for one of my GE's and one of the people emails everyone in the group and of course does not use bcc but sticks everyone's email address in the to: field (didn't we all learn from Novell?!?)

I'm curious as to why putting the addresses of the people to whom the email is directed in the To: field is a bad thing. It seems to me that if the email is targeted at a group of people, it should be sent to each of them, not sent to one, and CC'd to the others. CC, as I understand it, is a method of letting people ancillary to the communique be semi-officially involved. (Whereas BCC [or "Blind CC"] is a way to let them be unofficially involved.:) Just curious what the proper netiqutte on this one is.
