Using the “TO” and “CC” to send mass emails – bad, bad etiquette
November 2nd, 2009 by Ross
I give up… I am consistently disappointed in people’s inability to treat email addresses with due care and attention. I feel compelled to write a post about this as I have received yet another email with over 50 confidential addresses including mine in the “CC” tool from outlook over the weekend. Now everyone can see that persons email address book that they chose to send their email message update to. Bonkers!
Fine if you must for internal company messages but to multiple suppliers, clients and such it’s just bad practice. For people with years of experience I see them repeat offending and it gets my goat. Please, please if you must use outlook to send your mass communications then please use the blind carbon copy at least. Phew that’s off my chest – now back to work.
