If you’re a Microsoft Outlook 2010 user, you may be familiar with the feature called “Bcc.” This is a handy way to send a copy of an email to someone who is not currently able to see the email. To use Bcc in Outlook 2010, first open the Outlook 2010 Preferences dialog box. Then, under “Include recipients,” select “Blind Carbon Copy.” Now, when you send an email with Bcc enabled, Outlook will automatically include the recipient’s blind carbon copy in the email.


It’s not enabled by default, but adding it as a field for all future emails is a simple process.

Launch Outlook and under the Home tab click on the New E-mail button.

When the new mail window opens click on the Options tab and in the Show Fields column select Bcc.

The Bcc field will appear and you can then put the contacts in there who you want to receive the mail secretly or don’t want to show a certain email address.

Now anytime you compose a message, the Bcc field is included. For more on the Bcc field check out the blog post from Mysticgeek – Keep Your Email Contacts Private.
