Bcc to myself or a third party doesn't work

I think I know why Bcc'ing my own hotmail account doesn't work - Pity. I'm using hotmail and emailing a Bcc to either another hotmail or gmail account doesn't work.

Starting in June, third party email software like Thunderbird no longer seemed able to use BCC's when sending through Outlook/Live/Hotmail accounts (SMTP protocol), although it still works when you use the website or Microsoft software. It sounds as though Microsoft has not yet fixed that??
