Bcc Means
Privacy and Efficiency with Group Email
I'm sure you know these emails that were obviously sent to a
group of people: everybody's email address is in
the To: (or the Cc:) field, forming a long, long
list. This not only looks odd and
unprofessional, it also exposes the email
addresses of people who may have wanted to keep
them private.
1. Create a new message in your email
client.
2. Insert "Undisclosed Recipients" in the
To: field, followed by your email address in
"<,>" braces.
3. The To: field should look like:
"Undisclosed Recipients <me@example.com>".
If you send emails to undisclosed recipients
frequently, you can add your own email address
to your address book with "Undisclosed" as the
first and "recipients" as the last name. Instead
of filling in the To: field manually, you can
then use the address book entry. Put all the
recipients' email addresses in the Bcc: field,
separated by commas. The Bcc: field could look
something like: "my.first.friend@example.net,
my_second_friend@example.net, stillanotherfriend@example.com".
Compose your message. Send it.
