Everyone uses Gmail. Nowadays all information is shared by mail, as it is also a safe medium. Its utility is so much that all Smartphone have a special icon for Gmail. In this article, you are going to tell the things related to Gmail, which you may not know about before. Every day you use it, but in reality it is not aware of what this feature means. 

 What does 'To' mean?

If someone want to email anyone, then they put their mail id in 'To'. Explain about the content in the subject and send it. Through mail you can send text files, photos and videos to everything. When sending mail, you will see two options 'Cc' and 'Bcc' below 'To'. Generally the mail is mailed to 'Cc' and 'To' by entering a Gmail address. But, all options have some meaning and some special features are also there.

What does 'cc' mean?

In addition to 'To', 'Cc' is kept in the person, which is important about your mail and its content. Therefore, it is called carbon copy. Both 'To' and 'Cc' can see each other. Both know that a partial mailer has been sent to whom.

What happens to 'Bcc'

'Bcc' is called blind carbon copy. If anyone is in 'Bcc', then the information will not be known to the 'To' and 'Cc' people. However, the 'Bcc' can see who has been kept in 'To' and 'Cc'. In this way, it becomes part of the Secret Conversation. In such a situation, if you are giving party to your friends and want it to be safe for everyone, then put your second mail ID in 'To' and send mail to all 'Bcc'. Apart from this, the second advantage is that, because of being in 'Bcc', the mail id of important people cannot be copied. If you put important people in 'To' and 'Cc', then everyone can copy their mail id and this also increases the risk of spamming.
