BLIND CARBON COPY


Firstly, this facility (BCC) only became available with Internet Explorer 4 (and later) in Outlook Express.

For your information though.....

Blind Carbon Copy provides the means to send the same message to multiple recipients WITHOUT revealing any one individuals e-mail particulars (addresses) to any of the others.

In fact, no-one knows who else gets the message apart from yourself - they are hidden from all other recipients.

It is normal to address the To: section to <Your own e-mail address> - this will be the only address shown, then........

Bcc: (Blind Carbon Copy) <Jack Bloggs@where-ever>.
Bcc: (Blind Carbon Copy) <Jill Bloggs@where-ever>.
Bcc: (Blind Carbon Copy) <Jim Bloggs@where-ever>.
Bcc: (Blind Carbon Copy) <Joe Bloggs@where-ever>.
and so on, or you can do a 'Group' e-mail (See Index for this).
