This sounds like a stray blank line being inserted into what the MUA
intended to be the Bcc: header. That line marks the end of the headers (by
definition)...anything following it is message body. [The MUA could do
better, such as by stopping and issuing a warning, or even just silently
cutting off the Bcc: in the middle (Macintosh Eudora).

A different mass mailing technique (at least to the remaining
contacts...those who don't demand to be removed from the list because of
the problem) is indicated.
