Add cc / bcc recipients in your emails – Documentation - Yet Another Mail Merge Support

With Yet Another Mail Merge, you can easily add cc or bcc recipients to your mailing list. Follow this article to learn how to do so.

Two options are available and can be used simultaneously, depending on your needs:

Add an email address in cc of the draft who will receive all the emails
And / or add someone in cc of the spreadsheet who will receive only a specific email (the one for the recipient on the same row)

warning YAMM can't send emails just with 'cc' and/or 'bcc' email addresses.

Add cc/bcc in your spreadsheet

Simply add ‘cc’ as the header for a column in your spreadsheet, and the cc recipients will be retrieved from this column.
For bcc recipients, do exactly the same by adding another column with 'bcc' as the header.

If you want to put several addresses in copy, just separate them with comma:

Add cc bcc recipients spreadsheet

warning Make sure to add exactly 'cc' or 'bcc' in lowercase as YAMM is case sensitive.

Add cc/bcc in your email draft

You can also add a recipient in cc directly in your draft (if you have several cc, also separate the email addresses with comma):

Add cc bcc recipients gmail

info Contrary to the cc recipient(s) from the spreadsheet, the one(s) from the draft will be put in copy for each email of your whole recipients list.

To know before adding cc/bcc

warningAll cc / bcc recipients count against your quota!

Please take all persons in copy into account so that you can send all your emails.

For example, with a quota of 50 emails / 24 hours:

Your Google Sheets contains 15 main recipients
For 3 of these recipients, you add 1 person in copy
And you also add 2 email addresses in your Gmail draft

In total you will send 48 emails and will have only 2 left.

warning If a cc/bcc recipient opens your email, our tracker will mark it as 'EMAIL_OPENED'.

When you send an email to several recipients (or people in cc/bcc), it will be recorded as 'EMAIL_OPENED' in your Google Sheets when any of those recipients open your email. Learn more

We are not able to see who, among your recipients, opened the email. As the same email is sent to all those recipients, we can't technically differentiate them.

My Boss has asked to CC them so they can monitor each email I send to clients etc. So I would like to add my boss's email address via CC. Will my Boss's email address be included along with every email or sent as an individual separate email?

Your boss would be added as CC, not separate email, as long as you separate emails through comma.

How should my spreadsheet be setup if I want all the recipients to be Blind Copies? Should I just replace the column "Email Address" with "bcc" ?
