Bcc and cc in mail means

In email, bcc and cc are two common abbreviations that refer to the way you address recipients when sending an email.

Bcc (Blind Carbon Copy)

When you add someone's email address to the Bcc field, their email address is not visible to the other recipients of the email. In other words, they are not listed in the "To" or "CC" fields, and they will not know that others have also received the same email. This is useful when you want to send an email to multiple people, but you don't want them to know who else is receiving the same email.

CC (Carbon Copy)

When you add someone's email address to the CC field, their email address is visible to all other recipients of the email. This is useful when you want to keep others informed about an email, but you don't necessarily want them to be the primary recipient. For example, you might CC your manager or a colleague on an email to keep them informed about a project update.

Here's an example of how you might use Bcc and CC in an email:

• To: John Smith (primary recipient)
• CC: Jane Doe (kept informed about the email)
• Bcc: Bob Johnson (not listed as a recipient, but receives the email)

Remember to use Bcc when you want to send an email to multiple people without revealing their email addresses to each other, and use CC when you want to keep others informed about an email.
