Reply all bcc gmail
The infamous "Reply All" and "BCC" conundrum!
When you hit "Reply All" in Gmail, it sends your response to all the recipients listed in the original email, including the ones you may not have intended to reply to. This can lead to some awkward situations, especially if you meant to reply to only one person.
To avoid this, you can use the "BCC" (Blind Carbon Copy) feature in Gmail. Here's how:
- Compose your email as usual.
- In the "To" field, enter the email addresses of the people you want to reply to.
- In the "BCC" field, enter the email addresses of the people you don't want to reply to. You can add multiple addresses by separating them with commas.
- Write your response as usual.
- Click the "Reply All" button.
When you use the "BCC" field, the recipients listed there will not receive a copy of the email with the "To" field, so they won't know they're being BCC'd. However, keep in mind that some email clients may still display the BCC'd recipients in the "To" field, so it's not a foolproof solution.
To make it even easier, you can also use the keyboard shortcut "Ctrl + Shift + B" (Windows) or "Cmd + Shift + B" (Mac) to toggle the BCC field on and off.
Remember, when in doubt, use BCC!
