I'm trying to send some emails via GMail SMTP and the CC and BCC lines are not receiving the email. I've tested GMail SMTP with Evolution (Linux email client), which works fine, though I could not get a raw dump of the communication because it's via SSL.

Here's the communication log from Zend_Mail:

220 mx.google.com ESMTP 22sm2669783yxe.39

I don't know enough about the SMTP protocol to figure out what Zend_Mail isn't doing that it needs to be doing for CC/BCC lines to work.

A: 

Please see: http://forums.codewalkers.com/pear-packages-47/email-bcc-header-confusion-840705.html

In particular:

With SMTP, all recipients must be listed as param 1 in send, and the contents of the To/Cc/Bcc headers have no effect on what gets sent - they are just receiver information.

In a project that I did a while back, I had to send the email to each BCC recipient individually.
