What Does CC Mean in an Email?

Though the carbon copy field has essentially the same function as the address field, it is a useful tool for differentiating between the person for whom the email was primarily written and those for whom it was simply a copy. Similar to the carbon copy field is the blind carbon copy field, which serves the same function as both the address and carbon copy fields except that the the email addresses of all recipients in the blind carbon copy field are hidden from the other recipients of the email.
