I need to have the CC option on new emails always visible without having to click the button every time. I would like to be able to press TAB after entering recipients and get to the CC field. 

I'm on the new version (16.47 for Mac).

Thanks. I was hoping to not have to to any extra clicking to get to the CC field and just hit Tab. I found that I can change the settings to have all new messages appear in a separate window which accomplishes that for me.  See photo here: 

Thanks for your help.

    Was there a big outcry to hide the CC field?

    Changing things for the sake of changing them, not understanding that # of clicks is perhaps the most important design feature, as opposed to Microsoft's usual M.O. of cleaning things up by hiding them 15 clicks away.

    +1 for me as well. Every single email has to have cc for me, and it is now hundreds of extra clicks a day. Please fix this.
