Can I BCC Someone from My AOL Account?

The BCC feature, or blind carbon copy, allows you to copy an email message to another recipient.

It differs from the standard CC option because the other recipients of the message won’t know that the BCC’d address is also receiving the email.

This is useful when you need to copy a message to your boss or someone without the other senders being able to see their email address.

If you are used to the BCC feature in other email applications, then you may be having trouble finding it when you use AOL Mail in your Web browser.

Our tutorial below will show you how to add a BCC address to a message that you are sending from AOL Mail.
