Howto Auto BCC in Thunderbird?
January 21, 2007 12:36 PM

I want every email I send from Thunderbird to be BCCed to a gmail address?

It is late Sunday, (or I am coming down with something) but I can't figure out how to automatically have a copy of every email I send via Thunderbird BCCed to a gmail address that I am using as a backup store. Ideally, I would like it to go to the gmail sent box.

Right-click on the account name. Account Settings > Copies & Folders > Bcc these email addresses.

You can set up a filter on the gmail account to "skip inbox", but I don't think it can be designated as sent mail.

A substitute for the sent mail thing might be to create a filter in Gmail that labels all mail received from your Thunderbird email account.

Have you tried simply using smtp.gmail.com as your outgoing mail server?
