What does "Cc" stand for in regard to emailing? Thanks
CC means a copy of the email is being sent to someone.
Thanks!
You're welcome.
By the way, CC originally meant "carbon copy." It stems from the days when business letters were typed on typewriters and carbon paper was inserted to make additional copies at the same time.
Oh- yes, I've heard of that. Thanks for the information!
Oh- yes, I've heard of that.

In regard to emailing, "Cc" stands for "carbon copy." It is a way to send a copy of an email to additional recipients besides the primary recipient. This feature is useful when you want to keep others informed about the content of the email, even though they may not necessarily be direct recipients or involved in the conversation.
To use the "Cc" feature in most email clients or services, there are a few steps you can follow:
1. Compose a new email or reply to an existing one.
2. Find the "Cc" field, which is usually located below the "To" field.
3. Enter the email addresses of the people you want to send the carbon copy to in the "Cc" field. You can enter multiple addresses, separated by commas or semicolons.
4. Proceed to write the email content in the usual way.
5. Click on the "Send" button to deliver the email to the primary recipient and the carbon copy recipients simultaneously.
By using the "Cc" field, all recipients, including the primary recipient and the carbon copy recipients, will be able to see who else received the email. This transparency helps maintain communication and ensures that the carbon copy recipients are aware of the email content without being directly involved in the conversation.
