Question:
Why Can't I see My Blind Carbon Copy (Bcc) List?

When I send out emails to a group, I often like to use blind carbon copy so the recipients don't accidentally reply to all, and to preserve the recipients email privacy. However, I can't see the Bcc field in my copy of the email (even the sent copy). This is frustrating because I often can't remember everyone I sent the message to originally! Why isn't the Bcc field preserved in the sender's copy???

Note: I am using Windows Live mail.

If your emailing yourself on the list, and looking at the new email that gets sent to you, you wont see the BCC list.



If your looking at the actual sent email (In the sent items box) then you just need to unhide the BCC box.

there is an extremely super distinction. in case you cc somebody, the unique recipient can see which you have sent what you're sending them to others and of direction is acquainted with their addresses (undesirable form until eventually you all be conscious of one yet another) while bcc ability the recipient does not be conscious of which you have sent a duplicate to absolutely everyone else and can't see the addresses. Its a relic from typing and carbon replica days while cc meant carbon replica and bcc meant blind carbon replica.

Open the email in your sent folder.



Click on actions.



Click on view full header.



Cut and paste from that list into your new email.



Pain in the duff but it works.

all you need to do is to go to the toolbar menu and then put bcc back on to it!!! I hope that helps! =D
