Does BCC cause spam?
Your sales/marketing emails will probably get caught in SPAM filters: Stuffing the TO/CC/BCC field with email addresses makes your email look like spam and it might be caught by the SPAM filters, which means your recipients might never receive your email about an important announcement/sale/event etc.
Is sending BCC safe?
The BCC addresses, while not visible to the individual recipients, are visible to people eavesdropping on the message during transmission. Therefore, BCC is not secure enough to hide the recipient information in a way that is sufficient for HIPAA compliance.
Does BCC comply with GDPR?
Can I use BCC and be GDPR compliant? Yes, if you’re sending a mass email, BCC makes sure no-one else sees each other’s emails and therefore reduces the risk of a breach.
Can BCC emails be blocked?

What is BCC in email and how does it work?
What Is BCC In Email? The BCC (“blind carbon copy”) feature helps you send an email to multiple email addresses. When you enter a recipient in the BCC field, that address receives a blind copy of the sent email. The primary recipient of a BCC’d mail will not be aware of the BCC’d recipient.
To add recipients to the BCC list, click on the BCC button on the header, as shown below. Once you’ve clicked the “BCC” button, the BCC field will appear. Add the email ID of each hidden email recipient in the field. Now you can compose the message and click “Send”.

How do I remove BCC from an email in outlook?
To remove Bcc from your email, again go to the Options tab in the Show Fields group, and click Bcc. Once you add (or remove) Bcc, it stays that way for all email messages. While others can’t see who’s on the Bcc line of the email you send, you might want to remind yourself who you included.
