Displays Mailing List to All Recipients<\/h4>\n<p>The recipients in Gmail\u2019s CC list are not hidden from each other. This is fine when you\u2019re sending an email to a group of people who know each other.<\/p>\n<p>However, when you email a group where people don\u2019t know the other parties, using the CC feature is a breach of <b>privacy<\/b>.<\/p>\n<p><i>Think about it:<br \/>\n<\/i><i>If you\u2019re sending marketing or sales emails, would you think of giving away your <\/i><i>mailing list<\/i><i>?<\/i><\/p>\n<p>Because that\u2019s what you\u2019re doing by using the To\/CC field in Gmail!<\/p>\n<p>To protect the identity of your recipients, never use the CC field to communicate confidential information.<\/p>\n<h4>2. Impractical for Mass Mailing<\/h4>\n<p>Do you need to email dozens or even hundreds of recipients at a time?<\/p>\n<p><b>Manually <\/b>adding each recipient to the CC line would be a painstaking and error-prone process. You could misspell an email address, leave someone out, or mistakenly add someone as To. The list goes on.<\/p>\n<h4>3. Unintentional Reply All<\/h4>\n<p>A significant problem with using the CC line in Gmail is that any CC\u2019d person could mistakenly click \u201cReply All\u201d instead of the \u201cReply\u201d button while responding to your mail.<\/p>\n<p>An unintentional \u201cReply All\u201d <b>broadcasts <\/b>their response to every address involved in the communication (including the CC list), resulting in a potentially embarrassing situation.<\/p>\n<p><strong><a id=\"howdoyoubcc\" href=\"#this\">Go back to Contents<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Now that we\u2019ve covered how to CC in Gmail, let\u2019s explore how to BCC in Gmail since it can solve the <a href=\"#displays\">first limitation<\/a> to an extent.<\/p>\n<h2>How Do You BCC in Gmail?<\/h2>\n<p>The <b>BCC<\/b> (blind carbon copy) field allows you to send an email to a multiple recipient list.<\/p>\n<p>Each address in the BCC field is known as a <b>tertiary <\/b>recipient.<\/p>\n<p id=\"howtousebcc\">When using the BCC option, the main recipient of the mail will be <b>unaware <\/b>of other recipients you\u2019ve included. As a result, a BCC email is a little more confidential than CC.<\/p>\n<p>While your BCC recipient can\u2019t see who else has been added, they\u2019ll know that they were added to the BCC line and weren\u2019t the only ones being addressed.<\/p>\n<h3>A.

However, each BCC recipient will know that they\u2019ve been BCC\u2019d to this mail.<\/p>\n<p><b><i>For more <\/i><\/b><b><i>information on using BCC in Gmail, <\/i><\/b><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gmass.co\/blog\/use-bcc-in-email\/\"><b><i>read my ultimate guide.\u00a0<\/i><\/b><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong><a id=\"4problems\" href=\"#this\">Go back to Contents<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s now look at some potential issues of using BCC in Gmail.<\/p>\n<h3>B. 3 Major Problems with Gmail&#8217;s BCC Method<\/h3>\n<p>The three major problems with using the BCC field in Gmail include:<\/p>\n<h4>1. Unprofessional<\/h4>\n<p>Because your recipients in the BCC address field know instinctively they aren\u2019t the only ones added to this mail, it could raise questions or suspicion. That\u2019s why you should never use the BCC feature for formal conversations, as it could lead to distrust among your team members.<\/p>\n<h4>2. No Personalization<\/h4>\n<p>Gmail\u2019s BCC or CC feature doesn\u2019t allow you to <b>personalize <\/b>emails.<\/p>\n<p>This means that your recipients receive an email without their name being mentioned. This is enough for many people to mark your email as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gmass.co\/blog\/spam-filter\/\"><b>spam<\/b><\/a> or just delete it.<\/p>\n<p>Moreover, this makes it an impractical method to send pitches and marketing emails.<\/p>\n<p><b>Why?<br \/>\n<\/b>As you can\u2019t mention a person\u2019s name and customize their sales message, your BCC list recipient will receive a bland, generic marketing email that disappoints them. You won\u2019t be able to address their concerns and make a personal connection to boost your conversions.<\/p>\n<h4>3. No Stats or Analytics from Your Emails<\/h4>\n<p>Gmail doesn\u2019t give you any stats or <b>analytics <\/b>from your BCC or CC emails.<\/p>\n<p>While this might not be an issue for personal communication, it\u2019s a significant problem if you want to track how many people opened or clicked on your sales message.<\/p>\n<p>However, Gmail doesn\u2019t give the sender any features to analyze data \u2014 such as when the email was opened or what links were clicked, etc.<\/p>\n<p>These statistics indicate how well your emails are being received, so can you really operate efficiently without them?<\/p>\n<p>Moreover, these stats are helpful not only for email marketers and salespeople but also for anyone who regularly sends mass emails to a group.<\/p>\n<p><strong><a id=\"howtosend\" href=\"#this\">Go back to Contents<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Fortunately, you can easily overcome the problems associated with Gmail\u2019s CC and BCC features by using an email marketing tool like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gmass.co\/\"><b>GMass<\/b><\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2>How to Send Mass Emails with GMass (and Avoid CC and BCC problems)<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gmass.co\/\"><b>GMass<\/b><\/a> is a powerful email marketing software that allows users to run email campaigns from their Gmail inbox.
