 * Hallo,
    since privacy and security are very important for your plugin, I suggest
   a few implementation you can evaluate:
 * 1) when I write more then a recipient, each of them can see the email address
   of the other recipient. As a sender, I’d like a check box for BCC email, so that
   I can decide if I want the recipient see the other email address or not. As an
   admin, I’d like an option to control the default value of the check box for BCC
   option;
 * 2) as a sender, I’d like a ‘Send me a copy’ check box (unnecessary if I had BCC
   at point 1);
 * 3) as an admin, since I use a Captcha plugin to prevent system abuse and spam
   control, i’d like the Mailform had a captcha control (own or derived by the third
   party plugin).
 * Thanks in advance.
 * Bye, Pier

 * 1) is a bug with the new designed mail form. Will be fixed with the next update
   on wordpress and is fixed on github.
 * 2) I do not think that it is a good idea to get a BCC of an email that somebody
   send to somebody else. Under some conditions this could be a criminal offense!
   At least in Germany. So I do not want add this function. However if do you really
   want/need a copy of any email send by your server and do you use postfix as MTA
   please have a look at the config option always_bcc and sender_bcc_maps.
 * 3) Captcha are a plague 😉 I like the teergrube that we have already in the plugin.
   I think this is a better way to prevent abuse. However perhaps we will add a 
   captcha option in the future too.

 * Hello,
    for point 2 I was misunderstood!!!
 * I don’t want the site owner receive a BCC email that someone sent to someone 
   else, but I intended to give the visitor the opportunity to receive himself the
   email he sent to someone else!!!
 * Fixing point 1, this feature is unnecessary, because the visitor can put his 
   own mail among the recipients.
 * Thank you for you answers,
 * Pier
