Importance of BCC
The Importance of Blind Copy
Many people use the To: field or CC: (Carbon Copy) field to reach multiple email recipients, when it might be prudent or more considerate to use BCC: (Blind Carbon Copy) instead. If you were not aware of the distinction, read on. If you know about BCC, but don't know how to access it in your Mail program, take a look at the documentation or Help for your Mail program or ask someone who knows - I don't know of any Mail program that does not provide BCC.
Follow the link below to understand some of the benefits of using BCC.
Using BCC is all the more important when you are forwarding "warnings" or information that might just possibly be SPAM or a hoax, so you don't play into the hands of the spammers and spread a lot of private name & address information all over the internet for them to 'harvest' later.
If you find this message interesting, useful or helpful, email it using BCC to someone who might need to read it!
Enjoy Safe & Considerate Surfing!
