The Bcc header is only there at the time when the message is sent by the
e-mail client, the client doesn't actually* provide this header to the
server.
You need to check the recipient list instead.
${if forany{<, $recipients}{match{$item}{^ajaykajla@}}{yes}{no}}
This would match any recipient address that starts with ajaykajla@, and you
can then choose what to do about that.
See the entry for forany in
http://www.exim.org/exim-html-current/doc/html/spec_html/ch-string_expansions.html
for where I snarfed this specific example.
* Technically, it *could* be added, but then it would usually be stripped
by the MTA. So it's easiest just to think that it's not available.
