Not with an email I sent from Gnus last July; this is how it looks
(aside from the anonymization) in the Gnus Article buffer:

From: Stephen Berman <stephen.berman <at> gmx.net>
Subject: Bla bla
To: Stephen.Berman <at> gmx.net
Date: Tue, 19 Jul 2011 11:32:57 +0200 (29 weeks, 11 hours, 33 minutes ago)
Bcc: xxxxx.xxxxxxxxx <at> xxxx-xxx-xxxxxx.xx, xxxxxxxxx.xxxx <at> xxxx-xxx-xxxxxx.xx, xxxxx.xxxx <at> xxxx-xxx-xxxxxx.xx, xxxx.xxxxxxxxx <at> xxxx-xxx-xxxxxx.xx, xxxx.xxxxx <at> xxxx-xxx-xxxxxx.xx, xxxxxx.xxxxxxxx <at> xxxx-xxx-xxxxxx.xx, xxxxxx.xxxxxxxxx <at> xxxx-xxx-xxxxxx.xx, xxxxxxx.xxxxxx <at> xxxx-xxx-xxxxxx.xx, xxxx.xxxxxxxxx <at> xxxx-xxx-xxxxxx.xx, xxxx.xxxxxxxx <at> xxxx-xxx-xxxxxx.xx

Is this wrong?  In any case, this mail did arrive at the addresses in
both the To: and the Bcc: header lines.

No, I used addresses that do not have anything to do with each other.
