Have you ever wondered if there was an official solution to having an auto CC for all your outgoing emails? I have. I searched the internet for a solution to this problem about 5 months ago but did not find a good enough solution. Most solutions offer installation of a third-party software or adding a script to your email. Others suggested to let go of the Gmail platform and use an email client like Thunderbird or Outlook. Luckily, I did a search again yesterday and found that there is indeed an official solution from Google Apps for Business. It is through a setting called Sending Routing. This basically gives you a plethora of options to help you configure how your email behaves after you click send. Adding a secondary recipient is only one of these options.

To add an auto CC email account, follow the instructions below:

1. Sign in to your Google Apps for Business Admin Console. If you are not the administrator for your domain, you can refer this article to your admin.
2. Go to Settings > Gmail in the classic console or Google Apps > Gmail > Advanced Settings in the new console.
3. Select the Organization where you want the email set up. This is applied on a per organization basis so don’t forget to add your email to the correct organization.
4. Locate the Sending Routing section and configure your desired options.
5. Click Add Setting or Save when you’re done.

I hope this helps. Here is the full guide in case you want to play with the rest of the options.

Note: I have only tried this on the paid version of Google Apps for Business.
