Explanation

X-Receiver is not a recognized standard email header - headers prefixed with X- are by convention non-standard, custom, or experimental extensions added by specific mail servers or clients, not part of the core email specifications (RFC 5322).

Bcc (Blind Carbon Copy) is a standard header used to send copies to recipients whose addresses are hidden from other recipients. Errors-To is a standard header specifying where delivery error notifications should be sent. MIME-Version is a required standard header (from RFC 2045) that declares the MIME protocol version, enabling attachments and rich content in emails.

Memory tip: Watch for the X- prefix - in email standards, X- marks extension headers that aren't officially standardized, making any X-Something header a strong candidate for "not a common header" on an exam.
