cloudHQ Auto BCC for Gmail helps you automatically add BCC/CC emails every time you compose an email or reply, forward email. You can flexibly set multiple “From” Google email accounts to match with its “BCC” & “CC” Emails.

Here is how to set up rules and configure auto bcc or cc anyone on your emails with our Chrome extension:

  1. If you click “Auto BCC” button, you can add rule by clicking “Add new Rule”:
    chrome extension
  2. Setup “From” rules – if you have multiple from addresses select from which email address you want that rule is triggered.
    For example, if you select “email1@gmail.com” then auto bcc will execute only emails when emails are sent from “email1@gmail.com”:
  3. Setup “To” sending rules – in other words, define whether Auto BCC will add cc/bcc to emails when sending emails to any recipient, to selected recipients, or when *not* sending to selected recipients:

    1. Auto BCC will trigger for all recipients: To add BCC or CC to all your emails, select “to anyone”. You don’t need to enter any email addresses or domains:
    2. Auto BCC will trigger only when sending to certain recipients: You can specify email addresses or domain which will trigger Auto BCC. You can enter a whole domain with the @ sign (for example @customer.com) or a full email address (for example name@customer.com):
    3. Auto BCC will trigger only when you are not sending to certain recipients: Alternatively, you can also setup exclude sending rules. With an exclude rule, Auto BCC doesn’t add the copy when every recipient in the To field is on your list:
    4. Auto BCC will trigger only when you are not sending to certain domains: You can also setup exclude sending rules for all emails in certain domain.
      With an exclude rule, Auto BCC doesn’t add the copy when every recipient in the To field is in the excluded domains:
  4. Set whether Auto BCC for Gmail will do “bcc” or “cc”:
    chrome extension
  5. Enter email addresses to which Auto BCC for Gmail will do “bcc” or “cc”. Press enter key. When done, click “Save Rule”:
  6. You will see rule you have saved:
    chrome extension
  7. You can add more rule and bcc or cc as needed:
    chrome extension
  8. If you have entered an incorrect rule, just click on the rule:
    chrome extension
    Then delete the rule:
  9. When you compose email, you can access bcc or cc rules by clicking ‘envelope’ button:
    chrome extension

How rules are applied:

  • Rules are checked against the recipients in the To field. Recipients in the Cc or Bcc field don’t trigger a rule.
  • Each rule works only for the address selected under “When emails are sent from”.
  • If several rules match, Auto BCC adds the addresses from all of them. Each address is added only once.
  • A “to everyone, but not to” rule adds the copy if at least one recipient in the To field is not on your list. No copy is added only when all recipients in the To field are on the list.
  • To match a whole domain, enter it with the @ sign, for example @customer.com.
  • Auto BCC adds the address while you write the email, so you can see it in the Cc or Bcc field. If you remove it, Auto BCC doesn’t add it back to that email.
  • Recipients see a Cc address, but not a Bcc address. To keep the copy hidden, choose Bcc.
