Bcc vs Cc – Difference and Comparison

When you send an email, you can add a BCC or CCC to protect the privacy of your contacts. A BCC is like a blind carbon copy. It adds a copy of the message to your Sent folder, but it’s hidden from view in the To: field. The BCC recipient won’t see that they received this message unless they check their Sent folder. A CCC is like a carbon copy that’s visible in the To: field. The CCC recipient sees that they received this message just like any other email address would; however, unlike with a BCC recipient, other recipients cannot read their emails as well (unless they also have access to your sent items).

What is a BCC?

BCC is a blind carbon copy. It’s used to send a copy of an email to multiple recipients, but it also can be used as a privacy tool.

When you BCC someone, their address will not appear in the “To:” field of your recipient’s inbox. In other words, everyone else who receives your email will see only yours and their own names in that field–not those of anyone else who was included in your BCC list.

This means that if you want someone else to see that person’s name when they open up their own copy of the message (or if they happen upon it by chance), then don’t include them in any BCC lists at all!

What is a CCC?

CC is the carbon copy of an email. It’s used to send a copy of an email to someone, but does not appear in the inbox of the recipient. This can be useful when you want to forward an email without adding your own comments in it or if you want to give someone else access to a conversation without letting them know how many people are involved in it.

CCs are also different from BCCs in that CCs show up on both sides; if you’re CCed on something and then forward it, everyone who has been CCed will see both versions–one with their name underlined and one without.

How to use BCC or CCC?

• You can use BCC or CCC when you want to send an email to multiple people, but don’t want them to know who else received the message.
• To send a BCC or CCC, just add their email address in the “To” field and then type in their name as part of your message. The system will automatically add this person’s email address as well as any others who may be on the list.
• If you receive an email with either BCC or CCC included, it means that someone has sent it without revealing all recipients’ identities (if there are more than one). This could be useful if you want privacy during sensitive conversations with others involved in those conversations; however, if someone is using this method maliciously they could also cause harm by sending false information under false pretenses via this method without anyone knowing who did so until after damage has already been done!

Use BCC and CCC to protect the privacy of your contacts.

When you’re sending an email to multiple people, it’s easy to see why you’d want to keep their addresses private. You don’t want them receiving spam or other unwanted messages from strangers who saw your name in an email header. Your contacts will appreciate being able to easily identify these messages as legitimate correspondence between friends and colleagues rather than junk mail or phishing attempts aimed at stealing personal information.

In conclusion, it is important to know the difference between BCC and CCC. You can use BCC or CCC to protect the privacy of your contacts.
