CC Yourself

Occasionally I mess up on an email reply and find myself in the CC line. I understand that doing a CC is a big deal for some people – are you in that camp? – but for me, it’s superfluous. I already have a copy of the email in my Sent folder. I don’t need to CC myself.

If I were going to CC myself, though, I’d opt for the BCC. That’s probably one of my favorite email features ever. “Surprise! I sent this to other people and you didn’t know it!”

Also, if anyone has found a way to use carbon to duplicate emails, let me know.

What is this then?

The Daily Ping is the web's finest compendium of toilet information and Oreo™® research. Too much? Okay, okay, it's a daily opinion column written by two friends. Did we mention we've been doing this for over ten years? Tell me more!
