carbon copy....
It means that you are sending a copy to a third party indirectly related to the subject. The recipients can see who you have `cc`ed it to.
If you want to send a copy without the recipients in the `To` bar being aware - you use BCC which is Blind Carbon Copy.
Hope that helps :)

It stands for "carbon copy". If you put an address in as "c.c." it will send a copy of the e-mail to the primary addresses as well as those addresses listed as "c.c". Once sent all of the recipients can see the addresses listed as "To:" as well as those listed as "c.c.". If you want to send a copy to an address that others will not be aware of you can use the "b.c.c." or "blind carbon copy".

Carbon Copy OR Courtesy Copy- it means you're sending a copy of the email to someone else and they're not required/expected to reply.

cc = carbon copy.
One uses it to point out to the addressee who else is getting copied of the document.
Once upon a time, before photocopiers, people would need to place a piece of carbon paper between two pieces of typing paper. The image would then appear on the next page.

Carbon reproduction. it incredibly is an anachronistic holdover from the days of typewriters whilst letters have been typed out in triplicate utilising carbon paper to make on the spot duplicates of the unique; the cc observe became a courtesy to the adressee so as that (s)he would comprehend who else have been given a duplicate of the letter.

carbon copy ,which I find kind of funny. When we used typewriters we would put a piece of carbon paper between 2 pieces of paper. It was messy and horrible especially if you made an error.
I asked a question about this about a month ago.
The woman who gave the best answer suggested we should start saying cyber copy instead.

Carbon copy. It just sends the same thing to whoever's address you type in there.
