When setting up a meeting, can I add people to a Cc or Bcc field who will receive the meeting details for informational purposes?
There is currently no way to add a person as a true Bcc recipient to a meeting request. If you'd like to request the Bcc field be added to meeting requests in a future update of Outlook, submit a suggestion to Outlook User Voice. Be organized, on time, and buttoned up with Outlook. Try one month free. I had seen on a forum that to avoid having the invitees of an outlook meeting request visible (similar to Bcc for an email), we could put the recipients as resources. Indeed, when receiving, it seems the list was not visible. But when replying to the invite with an email, some of them became visible and were put as Cc of that reply automatically.
You cannot do this with a single email, but there are 2 convenient methods in Outlook which will quickly allow you to do this and automatically add the meeting details to the message.
Forward as iCalendar
First, create the meeting like normal and close it. Once created, select the meeting and choose:
- Outlook 2007
Actions-> Forward as iCalendar - Outlook 2010 / 2013 / 2016 / 2019 / Office 365
Meeting tab-> expand the Forward button and choose Forward as iCalendar
Now a new message will be created with the meeting attached as an ics-file. In this message you can specify the Cc and Bcc entries. The recipient can open the attachment to review the meeting details and choose if he/she wants to add it as an appointment to his/her own calendar.
Forward as text with attendee list
If you want the invitation list to be included as well, then you can drag and drop the meeting onto the Mail Navigation button or a mail folder. Now a new message will be automatically created with all the details added in the message itself, including the attendee list.
Sending meeting details as the email body.
