How to remove bcc mail ids in gmail

The pesky BCC (Blind Carbon Copy) recipients!

Unfortunately, Gmail doesn't provide a built-in feature to remove BCC recipients from an email. However, there are a few workarounds to help you achieve this:

Method 1: Use Gmail's "Show original" feature

  1. Open the email with the BCC recipients.
  2. Click on the three vertical dots at the top right corner of the email.
  3. Select "Show original" from the dropdown menu.
  4. In the "Original message" window, click on the "View raw message" button.
  5. In the raw message, you'll see the email headers, including the BCC recipients.
  6. You can copy the email headers and paste them into a text editor or a spreadsheet to extract the BCC recipients.

Method 2: Use a third-party add-on or extension

There are several browser extensions and add-ons available that can help you remove BCC recipients from an email. Here are a few options:

  1. BCC Remover (Chrome extension): This extension allows you to remove BCC recipients from an email with a single click.
  2. Email Header Viewer (Chrome extension): This extension provides a detailed view of an email's headers, including BCC recipients.
  3. Gmail BCC Remover (Firefox add-on): This add-on allows you to remove BCC recipients from an email with a single click.

Method 3: Use a script or automation tool

If you're comfortable with coding or using automation tools, you can use a script or tool to remove BCC recipients from an email. Here are a few options:

  1. Gmail API: You can use the Gmail API to programmatically access an email's headers and remove BCC recipients.
  2. Python script: You can use a Python script to connect to your Gmail account, retrieve an email's headers, and remove BCC recipients.
  3. Zapier: You can use Zapier to automate the process of removing BCC recipients from an email using a Gmail trigger and a custom script.

Please note that these methods may not work for all emails, and some may require technical expertise. Additionally, removing BCC recipients may not be possible if the email is encrypted or if the sender has used a different email client or service.
