In what cases would you find it useful to use the 'cc', 'bcc' and reply all functions of email?


Cc stands for "Carbon Copy." BCC means "Blind Carbon Copy". Anyone listed in the Cc means that these individuals will receive a copy of that message when you send it. All other recipients of that message will be able to see that the person you designated as a Cc: recipient has received a copy of the message. To add an entry in the Cc: field, click the "Add CC" link above the To: field.

Bcc means to ‘send a copy to another address but in this case, you do not have to indicate to the recipient that you sent this copy’.

The Cc: field will tell you how others have been able to obtain your email address.

Bcc: can be used to hide email addresses in order to avoid disclosing such information the remaining recipients. That way, when you send a message to a group of friends or colleagues, or forward an email to/ our favorite mailing-list, you can ensure that other peoples’ addresses do not get forwarded across the Internet. You can also use 'bcc' to send one email to a large group of people, without showing all the addresses to everybody.

This is sometimes used on small mailing lists. Note that in most software, if the receiver of an email clicks 'Reply to All' then it will go to all those in the 'To' box and in the 'cc' box, but not to those in the 'bcc' box.

ReplyEmail replies are usually informal, and often brief. You can reply to an email by selecting
r-icon or the "reply" menu item.

This action will perform two useful tasks: it will automatically transfer the person's email address into the "To:" field.The function will also automatically put a copy of the original email in the reply email, with a reply character such as ">" in front of each line (unless your client is configured not to do so). There is some style of replying to messages like:1-Top-posting
This method includes the entire parent message and usually previous messages (as displayed below):


-------- Original Message --------

2-bottom-postingAnother style of replying to messages is:

As illustrated above, bottom-posting requires the following steps: 1- Include original message text in your new email. 2- Do not include original message. 3- Attach original massage Include and indent original massage text. 4- Prefix each line of the original massage.

Specifying a Reply to address an email message will usually include the response to the person who originally sent the email. However, there are scenarios where one may want to have the reply go to an alternate email address. For example, if you are sending out an email on behalf of someone else, you may want to have any replies go directly to the person you are sending out the email for. "Specifying a Reply" To email address is quite easy in ASP.NET.
