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

    Perhaps Cattanik can make that request to Microsoft. It sounds like you know a bit about how they work. I may go back to the Apple email C which would be unfortunate as Outlook has other things I like better.

    Your response isn't helpful at all and I would recommend rereading the thread to see why I and many others have this issue. That being said, I have found a half-workaround. One of the problems with not being able to bcc myself is that, if i want to find a sent email (since I can't find it in my inbox) is that the Sent folder is at the end of the scores of other folders in my inbox so i have to scroll all way to the end of the folders just to get to the Sent folder. Inconvenient at best. I addressed this by making the Sent folder a Favorite. It now appears at the top of the folder list and will make the process a little easier.

    Coz the email only appears in the "Sent" folder of the iPhone, i also want a copy of that on my PC so i use the "Auto BCC myself" on my PC.
