Setting up an automatic BCC for every outgoing email varies significantly between platforms. Microsoft Outlook provides limited native workarounds, while Google Gmail does not offer a native auto-BCC setting at all.
Here is the comprehensive guide on how to toggle the BCC field permanently or automate the process for both platforms. Part 1: Microsoft Outlook
Outlook allows you to either permanently keep the BCC field visible while typing, or automate the BCC process entirely. How to Always Show the BCC Field
If you just want the blank BCC text box to stay visible by default every time you write an email, configure it based on your version:
New Outlook & Outlook on the Web: Click the Gear icon (Settings) in the top right →right arrow Go to Mail →right arrow
Compose and reply. Under the Message format section, check the box next to Always show Bcc and click Save. Classic Outlook (Desktop app): Open a New Email window →right arrow Click on the Options tab at the top ribbon →right arrow
Click the Bcc button. The box will remain visible for all future emails until you turn it off. How to Automate BCC (Auto-BCC Rule)
Native Outlook “Rules” only support auto-CC, not auto-BCC. To bypass this limitation, choose one of these methods: Method A: Exchange Admin Rule (For Business/Work Accounts)
If you manage or have access to a corporate network, an IT admin can establish a Microsoft Exchange Mail Flow Rule: Microsoft Community Hub Help with Rule set up | Microsoft Community Hub
