Gmail: Email a Group Using Bcc

Instead of typing in one email at a time for sensitive information, email pre-established contact groups privately. Blind carbon copies (bcc) prevent email receivers from seeing each others' emails.

  1. Build a contact group in Google Contacts. To create a new group, click the + sign next to Labels.

    Add the contacts for this group. There are different ways to add contacts, such as individually by editing the single contact. Click Label + and select the group. Click Apply to save the changes.

    To add contacts in bulk, select all the contacts by checking the box to the left of their name. Click the Label button, select the group to add them to, and click Apply to save the changes.
