How to Copy Someone's CC Email List

When an individual sends an email to someone, and wants to disclose the message to others, he will "Copy" it to a list of addresses. The message sender can send a "BCC" (Blind Carbon Copy), which prevents the email addresses in his email list from being disclosed. He can also send a "CC" (Carbon Copy), which does not hide the email addresses in his email list. Before copying a CC email list, obtain permission from the individual sending the email message. After copying the list, do not send unsolicited emails to the copied addresses. Doing so can be considered spam.

Instructions

1. Open the email message that contains the "CC" list.

2. "Right Click" inside of the "CC" message field.

3. Press "Ctrl" and "A" simultaneously on your keyboard. This will highlight all the email addresses in the list.

4. Press "Ctrl" and "C" simultaneously on your keyboard to copy all of the addresses.

5. Open your computer's notepad or another document program of your choice. To access document programs, click your Windows "Start" button. Select "Programs" or "All Programs."

6. Click "File" and "New" from the top navigation bar to create a new document.

7. Click inside the document window. Press "Ctrl" and "V" simultaneously on your keyboard to paste all of the email addresses into the document. Click "File" and "Save As" to save the email list.

8. Save the email addresses to your Outlook Express email address book. To do this, click "File" from the Outlook Express menu bar. Select "New" and "Distribution List." Click "Select Members."

   Click your mouse inside the text box. Press "Ctrl" and "V" simultaneously on your keyboard to paste all of the email addresses. Click "OK."
