Outlook 2007: Enable Blind Carbon Copy (BCC)
If you are sending an email out to a few people or a mailing list, you probably are wanting to hide the list of addresses from each recipient. You do this by using the blind carbon copy field in the message you are creating. Outlook has this field hidden by default, to unhide the field, follow these steps:
1. From the Outlook toolbar, click New and select Mail Message.
2. A new message window will appear.
3. Go to the Ribbon and select the Options tab.
4. In the Fields section, select Show Bcc.
5. The Bcc field will appear. Place the address(es) you wish to send a blind carbon copy.

Please also have a scree shot’s related to this. It is very useful if we have all the screen shot’s along with the description. I am not able to check this option in 2007

Yeah, but be careful using this feature!!! In older versions of Outlook, those who were BCC’d would be notified as such. THIS IS NO LONGER THE CASE in 2007!! This means that if you are copying someone that you are trying to keep abreast of a situation, but don’t want others on the TO & CC list to know the individual has been copied, you now need to tell them that they are being BCC’d. If not, they’ll think they were on the original TO list. NOT PRETTY!!!

Can you enable the BCC when you open a meeting request? I am trying to add this field to my New Meeting Request box.
