In the "to" field
The email address of the recipient goes in the "to" field.
The correct answer is "in the 'to' field".
When composing an email, the email address of the recipient is typically entered in the "to" field of the email client or application. This field is specifically designed to specify the primary recipient(s) of the email. By entering the recipient's email address in this field, you are indicating that the email is being sent directly to them.
Alternative options listed in the responses such as "in the recipient field", "in the subject line field", or "in the CC field" are incorrect. These fields serve different purposes:
- The "recipient" field is not a standard field in most email clients and applications. If it exists, it may refer to an additional means of specifying recipients, but it is not the standard field for entering the primary recipient's email address.
- The "subject line" field is used to provide a brief summary or description of the content of the email. It is not intended for specifying the recipient.
- The "CC" field (carbon copy) is used to send a copy of the email to additional recipients. While you can include the primary recipient's email address in the CC field, it is not the typical or recommended practice. The primary recipient is generally added in the "to" field for direct communication.
