Add BCC function on Procore Email
It would be helpful to have the option to BCC when sending an email from the Emails tool. We believe this would be a valuable privacy option.

We realize this UV ticket is very important to folks, however, at this time we have prioritized other items to focus on for the time being. We are always reevaluating what we are working on and making sure we address the core needs of our users, is always at the top of our list. Although we are not working on it currently, that does not mean it will not resurface and become prioritized in the future.

Can you look into reprioritizing this, there's always that one person who replies and if it's a foot in mouth comment or confidential, then they're upset/mortified.
I shouldn't have to preface emails with DO NOT REPLY TO THIS EMAIL...

Add the option to BCC the distribution group to prevent users from replying all

Ditto on the reasons . . . sending out RFI and bid requests, prefer more anonymity. And while we have just begun sending emails, I am surprised no BCC option exists, so that reply ALL doesn't affect/annoy all recipients. This seems to be an easier fix than not.

At the beginning of every project, as the GC, we send out a project start up email. Procore's Email Tool seemed like a great resource for this. We tried it on multiple occasions, both times with great failure. The first time we weren't aware that anyone could reply to the communication and it would blast back to everyone on the email. We received many emails with complaints from frustrated people asking to be removed from the email chain. (What a great way to introduce our project team to Procore, huh?) The second time, we put in a line requesting people not respond back to the email, but to send a new email to us for response. Not only was that a confusing step to have to take, not everyone followed our request and we still ended up with frustrated users. We no longer use the Email Tool, because without the ability to BCC users, there is no value for us.

We need to prioritize this tool ASAP. BCC will definitely make emailing better for everyone's use.

Why would anyone have an email tool that does not include BCC option?? What year is this?

This needs to be prioritized for development ASAP. It seems like what should be an easy fix would save us all a great amount of time. We should be able to mass email (w/bcc option) from Emails tool AND Directory.
Thank you!

Jeffery Silva's point below is spot on. The email function is useless for mass communications for that reason exactly. Until the BCC feature exists, this tool is losing a major functionality.

We are unable to send mass communications in procore because the lack of this feature. If we send it to multiple subs inevitably someone responds to all (including the original inbound email) which send emails to everyone... then everyone either complains or marks procore as emails as spam.

We need to send emails to a group with bcc option. I would like to send weekly schedule to subcontractors through Procore but I can’t bcc so I have to send it outside of Procore.

Every time a sub replies to an email that I've sent to all my subs, I continue to get annoyed subs emailing me about being copied on all replies. This should be an easy fix Procore!

Being able to send out a email to multiple subs who need to respond with required documents without them having to respond to ALL that the email originally went out to would be an APPRECIATED feature that Procore can add to the email tool. Please make this a prioritized development!!

We need to be able to BCC document emails.

Without having the BCC function available for use with Procore emails, I may use my company email for Job correspondence. This leads to written job documentation being in more than one central location (Procore).

Please add a BCC function or allow the private check box actually make it private for those receiving the emails. Not having a way to BCC makes blast emails through Procore very undesirable.

This would be a very valuable feature and would save a lot of time

I often send out email messages to our entire subcontractor directory that don't necessary require a group conversation. When we send out Bulletins to our complete sub list, every minor request from a sub ends up being sent to all 40 subcontractors on the project. Even if the sub hits "reply" rather than "reply all" from their email application.
It'd be nice if there was a setting that directed all replies only to the sender. -

We would really like to see this made possible, particularly in regards to contacting sub-contractors via batch email.
