Great! Once you get it, I'm sure I did it right last night.

I checked sendmail log and found it might be a MUA configuration
problem, that the option `-t' was not specified, which now I'm sure
consequently made Cc and Bcc not functioning.

But I was uncertain because of the Great Fire Wall and potential
man-in-the-middle attack (ssl fingerprint of smtp.google.com changed).

Thank you so much, Paul.
