Hi Edkelleher1,

Greetings.

Thank you for raising your concern in this community.

I am a bit confused about why you are using auto BCC for yourself, because you can already have all you sent emails in the sent items folders, and when you open an email there, you have the same option as in the inbox.

We usually use BCC for another recipient.

That being said I have double checked this in outlook on mobile, and from what I see there is no direct way to do it on the mobile. Sorry for this inconvenience.

Regards,

Mac

    This is actually hard to believe that Microsoft keeps ignoring this obvious need, all the more since it's probably not hard to implement.

    Maybe they prefer people to use Bluemail or other competitors (as I do, and many other people do), since most of them include this basic and very useful feature?

    For legal as well as other reasons, I require having BCC automatically included in all my correspondence.

    The fact that MS has not even addressed this issue is beyond comprehension. Instead of acknowledging this as a live issue, they seem to want to "blame" us for requesting this.

    The native Apple email on my iPhone handles this logically, seamlessly, and without challenge.

    C'mon MS! This is ridiculous!

    When I typed the above email a little while ago, i didn't realize there was a pre-existing TWO-YEAR string on this tedious, painful subject and STILL NO REPLY FROM MICROSOFT. I would have worded my email differently if I'd realized that. This is an egregious shortcoming on MS's part. Unfortunately for me, I have no choice about which email program I use because of my job. I'm stuck with this Neanderthal attitude at MS. but it helps to know I'm not alone....
