If you send an email to recipients using to and or cc line recipients of email can clearly see who email was sent to. If one of recipients was a mailing list then all recipients can clearly see recipients on mailing list.

This has two consequences

1. If mailing list is confidential (list of clients) then it isn't anymore.
2. If anyone does a reply to all reply is sent to everyone on both original to and cc line.

Putting mailing list on Bcc line solves both of these problems.

I would urge anyone who send email to mailing lists or mailing groups to consider using Bcc line in future. However it is especially important for very large mailing lists and confidential lists.

It will show you how to get details and IP addresses of spammers to forward to SpamCop in order to file your report against them. Please make sure before doing this, that email you report as spam “really” is spam and not something you joined on to receive. It's just as bad to falsely accuse someone of spam just as it is to receive spam!

Make sure before you join anyone’s mailing list that they have a privacy notice that allows you to unsubscribe at anytime you wish. And states clearly they will not rent nor share your email address with any third party.

If you find this information helpful please feel free to forward it on to your friends. They can join my mailing list simply by sending a blank Email to scams@aweber.com
