From The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (27 SEP 03) [foldoc]:

  addressee
       
           One to whom something is addressed.
          E.g. "The To, CC, and {BCC} {headers} list the addressees of
          the e-mail message".  Normally an addressee will eventually be
          a {recipient}, unless there is a failure at some point (an
          e-mail "{bounces}") or the message is redirected to a
          different addressee.
