In OWA 2003, the BCC field was present by default, in 2007, you have to enable it with options>show bcc on every message where you want to use it. I have a high-profile user who relies on this and he is complaining loudly.
Is there a way to turn this field on by default as it was in 2003? I have seen a hack that modifies the OWA code (the editmessage.aspx file), but this won't work for this client. I am hoping that there's a server registry hack or something that will do the job. Any takers?
Also: has anyone heard if exchange 2010 will correct this problem? Many thanks.
I haven't seen any ways of "fixing" Exchange Server 2007. I do believe that the current Exchange 2010 Beta 1 build has the ability to configure the "show bcc" at least for a specific user. To do this log into OWA and then choose options.

You need to modify editmessage.aspx.
Find: <tr id="trBcc" <%= ShowBcc ? "" : " style=\"display:none\"" %>>Change it to: <tr id="trBcc">
Note that the user cannot tab down to this field; they have to place the cursor there.
