Carbon Copy and Blind Carbon Copy.

Bcc keeps those addresses hidden so that the CC recipients can't see who received the email.

BCC is blind carbon copy. What will happen is that your email will go to all the TO's and CC, but then will also go to the BCC without showing the Toos and CC's. Be careful on this one, because if the BCC's were copied and respond to all, it blows your cover to the other recipients.

Cc stands fro Carbon Copy.. this mean the recepients in CC will receive the same copy of the letter. Bcc stands for Blind carbon copy wich means the recepients in Bcc will receive the mail too but no one will ever know they received it because the Bcc list of users is hidden and removed from the mail.

CC - a bit anachronistic, means carbon copy.

BCC is Blind Carbon Copy, i.e. the people on the bcc list get the mail but the others don't know you've sent it to them.

yes cc means that and Bcc is blind carbon copy, so anyone who is Bcc'ed on an email or letter will not be seen by the other parties

CC: does indeed mean carbon copy and is a direct copy of the email.

BCC: stands for 'Blind Carbon Copy'. Using it means that recipients of the mail cannot see the other recipients email address like they can in CC with the exception of the address in the 'to' field. It can be used to cover everyone's email address by putting your own email address in the 'To' field and then everyone else's in the 'BCC' field.

Hello,

Cc: stands for "carbon copy" which you can then send on to another person (i.e. exactly the same information or data) or send onto a group of people. If you send the email via CC everyone in that group can also see the names of everyone else the same email or information was sent too. (no privacy)

However, if you use Bcc: Blind Carbon Copy it means that you can send the same information to a large group of people but their names & also email address's will not be shown to everyone else in the same group (privacy protected).

RE: What does CC and BCC means in an e-mail? I see it when I compose a mail, but I am not sure what it is used for. Can you give me an example of CC and BCC.

cc: was originally "carbon copy" but since no one knows what that means, the meaning has changed to "courtesy copy." bcc, then would be, "blind courtesy copy," which means the receiver does not know that that person got a copy. cc's are visible to the receiver; bcc's are not.
