IETF Drops RFC For Cosmetic Carbon Copy 63
paulproteus writes "Say you have an email where you want to send an extra copy to someone without telling everyone. There's always been a field for that: BCC, or Blind Carbon Copy. But how often have you wanted to do the opposite: make everyone else think you sent a copy to somebody without actually having done so? Enter the new IETF-NG RFC: Cosmetic Carbon Copy, or CCC. Now you can conveniently email all of your friends (with a convenient exception or two...) with ease!"

Since when does a boss read e-mails anyway? In this case, CC and CCC would function the same.

Just wait ...
You're going to see a post from an unexpected new slashdot mod ... his/her post will be something like:
I couldn't take it anymore. I've killed them all. Slashdot will now be closed because I had to save the world from them. I'm going to turn myself in now, you're all welcome.
To which I suggest we all respond with donations to their legal fund.

Actually, it's the "CC" field. (Score:3, Funny)
In Soviet Russia, spam no longer CC's YOU!
