Simple Email Service BCC not sending emails.

Question

I am using the ses api to send emails.  My code looks like this:
```
SendEmailRequest sendRequest = new SendEmailRequest()
{
	Source = fromEmail,
	Destination = new Destination()
	{
		ToAddresses = chunk,
		//BccAddresses = chunk
	},
	Message = new Message()
	{
		Subject = new Content(subject),
		Body = new Body()
		{
			Text = new Content()
			{
				Charset = "UTF-8",
				Data = message
			}
		}
	}
};

SendEmailResponse? response = await ClientSendEmail(client, sendRequest, CancellationToken.None);
```
The code above work when ToAddresses = chunk.  When ToAddresses is commented out and BccAddresses is uncommented, nothing appears. I am testing with chuck being a simple list of two emails.  One is a valid email, the second is an invalid email.

When ToAddresses is uncommented I get a single email (the valid one).  I expect the same behavior for BccAddresses, but instead, I get nothing.  Does SES **not support BCC without a ToAddress**?

The following page mentions you must specify a To address, so the answer is no, it doesn't.

> `SendEmail` requires a From: address, To: address, message subject, and message body—text, HTML, or both.

module.exports.forgotPasswordEmail = async (event) => {
  try {
    const templateBody = `Test`;
    const emailParams = {
      Destination: {
        ToAddresses: [`arjuntejaswi.s@gmail.com`],
        BccAddresses: ["arjunrock160@gmail.com"], // Add your BCC email address(es) here
        CcAddresses: ["test@gmail.com"],
      },
      Message: {
        Subject: {
          Charset: "UTF-8",
          Data: "Password Resend Request",
        },
      },
      Source: "no-reply@onarrival.travel",
    };
    emailParams.Message.Body = {
      Html: {
        Data: templateBody,
        Charset: "UTF-8",
      },
    };
    return await SES.sendEmail(emailParams).promise();
  } catch (error) {
    console.log("emailError", error);
    return error;
  }
};

This is my SES email code and for some reason I am not able to see bcc in the email after triggered. Not sure why.
Could someone help me here.
