Was bedeutet cc bc c in mails

A common question!

In emails, "CC" and "BCC" are abbreviations that stand for:

CC (Carbon Copy): This stands for "Carbon Copy". When you add someone's email address to the CC field, they will receive a copy of the email. The email will be sent to the recipient, and they will know that they are being copied on the email. The CC field is used to keep others informed about the email, often for informational purposes or to keep them updated on a conversation.

BCC (Blind Carbon Copy): This stands for "Blind Carbon Copy". When you add someone's email address to the BCC field, they will receive a copy of the email, but their email address will not be visible to the other recipients. The BCC field is used to send an email to multiple recipients without revealing their email addresses to each other. This is often used for mass emails or when you want to keep the recipient list private.

Here's an example:

• If you send an email to John and CC Jane, Jane will receive a copy of the email and know that she is being copied.
• If you send an email to John and BCC Jane, Jane will receive a copy of the email, but her email address will not be visible to John.

In summary, CC is used to keep others informed, while BCC is used to keep the recipient list private.
