Auto BCC your custom email address when using Gmail

When sending emails to your contacts outside of your BIGContacts account, it's essential to BCC your BIGContacts custom email address. This allows BIGContacts to receive, sort, and store the email in the appropriate contact record.

However, Gmail does not have a built-in "auto BCC" feature. Fortunately, third-party solutions can help automate this process.

Why Auto BCC is Important?

BIGContacts relies on the BCC feature to track email communication. Since Gmail does not offer an auto-BCC function natively, users need to remember to manually BCC their custom BIGContacts email address every time they send an email outside the CRM. Using an automated BCC solution is ideal to avoid human error and ensure all communication is captured.

Using Third-Party Solutions to Enable Auto BCC in Gmail

If you're using Google Chrome as your browser, there are several add-ons available to enable the auto-BCC feature for Gmail. Here are two reliable Chrome extensions that can help automate the BCC process:

1. Auto BCC for Gmail: This extension automatically adds a BCC email address to your outgoing emails in Gmail, allowing you to avoid manual entry each time

2. BCC Me for Gmail: Another effective tool that automates BCC for every email you send, helping ensure your BIGContacts custom email address is always included.

Workarounds for Gmail Auto BCC
