coreILLA - Conversations - How to CC (Carbon Copy) and BCC (Blind Carbon Copy) for Email Composer

Our email composer is equipped with the functionality of CC and BCC capabilities, providing a robust emailing experience. This feature allows users to effectively manage their communication by engaging multiple stakeholders in a single thread while preserving individual confidentiality. As an integral part of our user-friendly solutions, this feature continues to redefine user control in communication, in alignment with our commitment to offering feature-rich email experiences.

What is the CC and BCC capability in the Email Composer?
The CC (Carbon Copy) and BCC (Blind Carbon Copy) capabilities in the Email Composer enable you to send emails to additional recipients.
The CC function allows you to email additional recipients beyond the primary ones in the 'To' field. When you use the CC function, the email addresses of all recipients (primary and CC'd) are visible to all who receive the message.
On the other hand, the BCC function also allows you to send emails to additional recipients, but in a more private manner. When you use the BCC function, the email addresses of the BCC'd recipients are hidden from all other recipients. This means that people who receive the email will not know that the BCC'd recipients are also receiving it, thus ensuring their privacy.








How to use the CC and BCC feature?

Open the email composer by clicking the "New Email" button or "Reply" in an existing email thread.

You can select an email address from the dropdown list (which contains all your contact emails) or manually type in a new email address.

Collapsing the Fields: After adding the recipients, click on the CC/BCC field again to collapse it. The added recipients will be saved.


Syncing Changes: The new feature also supports 2-way sync. Any changes to the email recipients (added or removed) in our system will be reflected in Gmail/Outlook and vice versa.


Replying to Emails: You can only do a "reply all" to any email with CC or BCC recipients. It's important to note that you cannot remove CC/BCC recipients in the middle of a thread.
