Prevent copies of Send messages going into my own InBox.

When using Windows Mail, how can I stop copies of my sent messages going into
my InBox. I have it configured to save a copy in my SentMail box which is
good but... a copy also goes into my InBox.

Usually, it is enough to leave your address out to the To:, Cc:, and Bcc:
lines.

Re: Prevent copies of Send messages going into my own InBox.

I'm using Windows Mail on my laptop with Vista. I do not include my address
in the To: or the Cc: and there is no Bcc: option available. Windows Mail is
the client I'm using to interact with my Comcast email server. I'm wondering
if it something I have set up in the Comcast space.

The Bcc: line is normally hidden and empty. If you'd like to see it, start
a
new message, then click View, then All Headers, in the new message window.

I'm no expert on Comcast, so you might want to ask Comcast.

Re: Prevent copies of Send messages going into my own InBox.

When a sent message appears in your inbox, look at the hidden headers
by pressing Ctrl+F3. If there is a "Received:" header it means the
message passed through at least one mail server. If so, the problem
is at the server level, not with your Windows Mail.
