Get a Bcc Recipient's Full Address

Demonstrates the Chilkat Email.GetBcc method, which returns a blind carbon-copy recipient's full email address (display name and address together) at a given zero-based index. This example adds two Bcc recipients and enumerates them.

Background: Bcc recipients are stored on the Email object even though their addresses are stripped from the delivered message headers. GetBcc returns the "full" form — the combined Display Name <address> — whereas GetBccAddr and GetBccName return just the address or just the name. Iterate from 0 to NumBcc - 1 to read them all.
