An example of an attachment is a Word\ndocument uploaded to the email message. Images can be attached to\nemail messages, too, as files with images in them can be stored in an\nemail message. Other types of files can be uploaded to email messages\nif needed. Many email service providers have upload file size limits.\nThis is usually per email. There are, however, ways to work around\nthis. Sending large amounts of uploads that are close to the upload\nsize limit in multiple emails is the easiest method. File transfer\nservices can be used, too, in order to send files to others. Media\nfiles often are large in size. The size of video files can be quite\nlarge at times.<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\" style=\"margin-left: 0.6cm; background: transparent\"><br\/>\n<br\/>\n\n<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\" style=\"margin-left: 0.6cm; background: transparent\"><br\/>\n<br\/>\n\n<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\" style=\"margin-left: 0.6cm; background: transparent\"><br\/>\n<br\/>\n\n<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\" style=\"margin-left: 0.6cm; background: transparent\"><font size=\"4\" style=\"font-size: 14pt\"><b>Cc\nand Bcc<\/b><\/font><\/p>\n<p align=\"left\" style=\"margin-left: 0.6cm; background: transparent\">Carbon\ncopies and blind carbon copies of emails can be sent using email\nplanning, composition and organizing platforms like Outlook and\nThunderbird. Cc stands for carbon copy and Bcc stands for blind\ncarbon copy. A blind carbon copy of an email is a carbon copy of an\nemail which has the sender not disclosing the recipients to whom the\nblind carbon copies of the email was sent to other thEan those who\nwere not in the Bcc list and the recipient of the blind carbon copy\nof the email. Blind carbon copies of emails are useful for sending\ncarbon copies of emails to multiple email addresses and maintaining\nthe privacy of the email addresses of the recipients in the mailing\nlist. However, one must consider when it is appropriate to Cc an\nemail or Bcc an email when sending carbon copies of a given email.\nThis way, Cc and Bcc will be used ethically when used.<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\" style=\"margin-left: 0.6cm; background: transparent\"><br\/>\n<br\/>\n\n<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\" style=\"margin-left: 0.6cm; background: transparent\"><br\/>\n<br\/>\n\n<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\" style=\"margin-left: 0.6cm; background: transparent\"><font size=\"4\" style=\"font-size: 14pt\"><b>Email\nSecurity<\/b><\/font><\/p>\n<p align=\"left\" style=\"margin-left: 0.6cm; background: transparent\">It\nis important that emails do not pose a security risk to email\nrecipients and mail servers.
