In today’s fast-paced world, email communication is an essential part of our work and personal life. But sometimes, it can be difficult to keep track of all the emails we send and receive. One way to stay organized is to automatically CC or BCC yourself on important emails.

CC stands for carbon copy, and BCC stands for blind carbon copy. When you CC or BCC yourself on an email, you receive a copy of it in your own inbox, in addition to the recipients of the email. This can be useful for keeping track of important conversations or documents.

Here’s how you can automatically CC or BCC yourself in Outlook and Gmail:

2. Click on the “Options” tab and select “Bcc” in the “Show Fields” section.
3. Click on “Bcc” and add your own email address.

5. Click “OK” and send the email.
