I agree, if it's something that should be sent to somebody, then be open about it. If it's confidential then it's exactly that, in which case it would be nice to be able to trust that it hasn't been sent halfway round the world.

Many servers seem to be able to block the use of BCC copies. As an antispam measure that is effective. A simple option that could be applied by ntl with little impact on their customers perhaps?

That probably depends on your choice of guessable, or not, ntl email addy. The initial.surname@, or firstname.surname@ types are too easy for these spammers to use, and I dare say they have software that guesses the addys, sends the spam, and unless there is an undeliverable bounce, locks the addy into it's future use list.
