Every staffer must have an e-mail address (e.g., john@agency.com). For security reasons, C&P e-mail is generally sent only to staff members and not to people outside the shop. This prevents confidential information from being to sent to clients, vendors, and possibly competitors. However, "cc’s" (i.e., carbon copies) and "bcc’s" (i.e., blind carbon copies) have no such limitation. This means users who manually send e-mail from Clients & Profits can potentially send it to anyone. All email sent from C&P are sent with a "normal" priority
