When is it appropriate to use blind carbon copy (BCC)?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: When recipients’ email addresses need to be hidden from one another
BCC is appropriate when one message must be sent to several recipients without revealing each recipient’s email address to the others. It protects recipient privacy and can reduce unnecessary exposure of contact details. If addresses should be visible to everyone, the recipients may be placed in To or CC. CC is also the usual choice when a visible copy is sent to someone, so B, C, and D are not correct.
