Mail en cc

You're referring to the common email etiquette practices of "To" and "CC"!

To:

The "To" field is used to specify the primary recipients of the email. These are the people who are the main intended audience for the message. When you add someone's email address to the "To" field, they will receive a copy of the email and will be notified that they are the primary recipient.

CC:

The "CC" field stands for "Carbon Copy" (although it's no longer related to the old carbon paper technology). It's used to send a copy of the email to additional recipients who may be interested in the conversation, but are not the primary intended audience. When you add someone's email address to the "CC" field, they will receive a copy of the email, but they will not be notified that they are the primary recipient.

Best practices for using "To" and "CC" fields:

  1. Use the "To" field for the primary recipients who need to take action or be informed about the email's content.
  2. Use the "CC" field for additional recipients who may be interested in the conversation, but don't need to take action.
  3. Keep the "CC" list concise and only include people who genuinely need to be copied on the email.
  4. Avoid using the "CC" field to send emails to large groups or distribution lists, as this can lead to information overload and cluttered inboxes.

By following these guidelines, you can use the "To" and "CC" fields effectively to communicate with your email recipients and maintain a clear and organized email workflow.
