Alan Lepofsky just uncovered a neat new feature in Notes 8 that may save some of us from those embarrassing blind carbon copy (bcc) mistakes. The Notes client now automatically removes the reply-to-all option for emails that the recipient received as a blind copy.

“So now in Notes 8 when you are Bcc’d on an email, you can no longer embarrassingly reply to everyone, considering they (everyone but the original sender) did not know you received the email in the first place!”

Careful though, you can still use reply-to-all for that message directly from your inbox.
