It’s 2009, I can’t believe I just had to send this email.
When you add recipients to the “CC” list you expose all recipients email addresses to everyone else on the list. By doing this you have inadvertently sent your entire client list to all of your clients.
In the future please use BCC.

Ok.
When I send you an email in which I discuss a 3rd party (let’s call him Bob).
And, if I’ve also cc’d this email to a seperate 3rd party (Jim and Francis).
Do not forward the email to Bob. I have probably not included him for a specific reason. I’ve either discussed the subject of the email with him, or I feel that the email portrays him in a negative light, or something else.
Please assume that I construct every email with care.
That’s all.
My I direct your attention to Part I: Yes I Got Your Email!
Don’t ask me if I received your email, of course I did! Email is very reliable these days, if you’re emailed me before you’re not going to show up in my spam folder.
Of course I got your email!
Whether I’ve read it is another question.
