Revisit: Email Tech Tip: Reply vs Reply All and Sender using the Blind Carbon Copy (BCC) feature.

Reply only sends the new message to the original sender. Attachments are not included. Reply all sends the new message to the original sender and all other recipients on the To and Cc lines.

Do not reply-all when:

• Only the original sender needs to know your reply. The sender should include a note - "Please reply directly to me, don't reply all. "

• Your comments will be crucial to know for the original sender but only a few other recipients. Reply to the sender and then add the select other recipients manually. Copy their addresses from the original email if that helps.

• Your message is simple acknowledgment like "Thanks!" or "Me too."

Reply-all responses should be reserved for special cases only.

A Tip for a sender using Blind Carbon Copy (BCC) feature.

Benefits of Using BCC:

Using the BCC field to send an email message to a large group of people has a number of benefits, including:

• The privacy of email addresses is protected in the original message. Recipients will receive the message, but won't be able to see the addresses listed in the BCC field.

• When an email is forwarded, the addresses of everyone in the To and CC fields are also forwarded along with the message. Addresses that have been placed in the BCC field are not forwarded.

• If you have placed a large list of recipients in the To or CC field, all of them will receive the reply. By placing recipients in the BCC field, you can help protect them against receiving unnecessary replies from anyone using the Reply All feature. (This is an important benefit).

• Many viruses and spam programs are now able to sift through mail files and address books for email addresses. Using the BCC field acts as an anti-spam precaution. It reduces the likelihood that recipients will receive a spam message or a virus from another recipient’s infected computer.

That's it for now!
