When sending an e-mail what is the difference between the TO box, CC box and BCC box?

BCC is Blind Carbon Copy. When you put someone's address in there, it's like sending them a carbon, but no one else will see their address. If it's in the "TO" box or the "CC" box, then everyone who gets a copy will see their address.

To is who you want the email to go to. The CC is a copy to that email. The "to and cc" persons can see each others email. The BC is a blind copy and that person can't see the other email address and the TO person does not know you have a BC email address hence blind copy.

BCC is blind carbon copy. those people cant see who you sent it to in the TO and CC sections and the TO and CC people cant see them. Using the TO and CC sections is usually only done with office workers. Casual emails usually put everyone in the TO section. Just some info.

CC is Carbon Copy and the copy to list is visible to everyone on the list. BCC is Blind Carbon Copy and the list is hidden

To is the main person you address it to. CC is Carbon Copy. This is an "old" term that means that while this person isn't the main recipient of the email, you are sending them a copy for their information or records. BCC is BLIND Carbon Copy. This means that you are sending them a copy as above, but now no one else on the recipient list can see them. When a message is sent everyone can see who else the mail was sent to in either TO or CC. Anyone listed in BCC will show up only to themselves. They will get to see who was in To or CC, but not other people in BCC. This is handy in CYA situations. If you have a co-worker sending you harrassing emails you can send them a replay asking them to stop, with your manager in BCC. Your manager gets the email, and your co-worker doesn't know. This is also good when you have people that don't want their email addresses shared with people they don't know.

Blind Carbon Copy.. no one else gets to see who all it got sent to:)

To is who it is going to. You can carbon copy some one (CC) or blind carbon copy (BCC). The person it is going to does not see that it is going to the BCC.

With BBC, you can send to multiple people and they won't know who else you've sent it to. You can put it all in the To box, but the To box is really for the main person the email is to

To- is who it is going to and you want a response CC- courtesy copy meaning you want those people to view it but they don't have to respond BCC- blind courtesy copy meaning no one can see who you wrote it to and they don't have to respond
