When setting up a meeting, can I add people to a Cc or Bcc field who will receive the meeting details for informational purposes?

For meeting requests in Microsoft Outlook, the program does not have a bcc (aka Blind copy) option to add participants to a meeting, without publishing all personal data (mail addresses) to the other participants. Microsoft is aware of the issue, but hasn't fixed the option yet. FindTime is an Outlook add-in that allows you to quickly find time to meet with others - something that can take weeks without FindTime! FindTime helps you pinpoint times to meet by looking at available free/busy data for your attendees as well as creating a poll where attendees can vote on the times you suggest, and even suggest new times.

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.

• Quickly find every message where you have been asked to do something.
• Ensure that the person who are asked do something really was added to recipient's list(yes!, often the person in question isn't be added to the recipients list!)

To add a person to the message, inside the body of the email message or calendar invite, enter the@ symbol and the first few letters of the contact's first or last name. For example:

Note: You can delete a portion of the mention, for example, everything other thanthe person's first name.

The sender just can be sure that all mentioned recipient will receive a copy of this message.
