EMAIL TIPS - Forwarding & Using BCC

Be courteous to friends and family and don’t share their email addresses with the world - protect their privacy ~ Consider these two tips:

• When forwarding, ALWAYS DELETE ALL OTHER EMAIL ADDRESSES that appear in the message (at the top). Just highlight them and delete them or cut them out – You have to click the "Forward" button first and then you can edit the message anyway you want, including removing all prior email messages (If you don't click "Forward" first, you won't be able to edit the message) Remember when you use the forward button it makes a copy of the entire message-so it’s now your property.
• ALWAYS USE THE BCC when sending messages to numerous people (that’s right don’t put their names in the TO: field – if your email requires an address there, such as AOL does, then put your own). When you use the BCC everyone gets the email message but no one sees any address that the email was sent to protecting everyone’s privacy
