How do you use Bcc in sending email messages?
BCC stands for Blind Carbon Copy. When you use CC you let all the e-mail receivers know who received a copy of the e-mail. When you use BCC, the members of the BCC group are not revealed to the other people who receive the e-mail. If you receive an e-mail that shows the only recipient as the sender, it probably means that your e-mail address was included on the BCC line.
Does it matter which one of the Cc or Bcc fields I use to enter the email addresses of additional recipients?
BCC means blind courtesy copy the main recipient will not see the other email addresses.
How can you send a bulk email without everyone seeing who gets the email?
Use the "bc" or "bcc" feature otherwise known as blind copy (you have the options of using "to", "cc" (carbon-copy), or bcc (blind copy or blind carbon copy) when sending emails. People will only see that the email was sent to "undisclosed recipients" if you use bc or bcc.

What do you mean by Bcc and ccc in email?
CC is short for carbon copy. BCC is short for blind carbon copy.The reason BCC is called a "blind" carbon copy is that, as opposed to CC, BCC recipients of an email are not indicated to anyone, including other BCC recipients.Therefore, if you send an email to person A, with person B and C in CC and person D and E in BCC, person B will see that the email was sent to person A, B, and C, but will not see D or E's names.Likewise, neither person D nor E sees each other's names on the recipient list.The manual that I read said that BCC is good for "secret guests" of a party.
What is the use of Bcc field?

What are the drawbacks to putting the email addresses of all recipients in the To line?
One drawback is that everyone who receives the email will know the email address of everyone else. You can preserve privacy by using BCC or 'blind copy'. Any address in the BCC will be hidden.
What are advantages to using Bcc and cc?
BCC is the same as CC, except that the BCC field isn't public. An email sent to you via BCC will look as if it was sent normally and magically ended up in your inbox. This is handy for mailing lists, as you could send an email to yourself or nobody and have all of the recipients in the BCC field, protecting their privacy.
