What Does Bcc Mean in Email? Expanded, Bcc stands for blind carbon copy. If this gives you the image of an empty sheet of paper, that might not quite be what email's Bcc: is about, but it's not entirely useless as an analogy either. The Bcc: field helps you deal with the problems created by Cc:. As it is the case with Cc:, a copy of the message goes to every single email address appearing in the Bcc: field. The difference is that neither the Bcc: field itself nor the email addresses in it appear in any of the copies (and not in the message sent to the addresses in the To: or Cc: fields either). The only recipient address that will be visible to all recipients is the one in the To: field.
When you write an email, you write it to someone (and indeed, perhaps, someone special). Yet, the To: field is not the only place to put an addressee. Two more fields accept recipients.
