I am on Umbraco 7.2.8 and latest version of Contour. How can I add a blind copy email for a specific workflow/submissions? Thanks for your help in advance :)
Unfortunately it's not a default option, you can however extend the workflow to suit your needs. If you are interested in that approach let me know and I'll provide you with some samples
And the sourcecode for all the default providers is available here https://our.umbraco.org/FileDownload?id=5060 (it's easy to use them as a starting point, should be super easy to add the bcc option)
After install of the package, and installation of Umbraco Forms, you can add the extra dll (https://our.umbraco.org/FileDownload?id=15280) to your bin-directory and you can specify cc, bcc's and track your e-mails!
If it doesn't have to be a real BCC, but still have same effect (the other recipients won't see it) you can always create two workflows, one that sends it to the real recipient and one to yourself (BCC) without installing any additional plugins or custom code.
How to add BCC recipients through the workflow?

Hey Mary,

Yes, I have actually been looking into extending the workflow module. Samples would be great. Thanks Tim :)

Ok you can find the developer docs here https://our.umbraco.org/projects/umbraco-pro/contour/documentation/Developer/Extending-Contour/
And the sourcecode for all the default providers is available here https://our.umbraco.org/FileDownload?id=5060 (it's easy to use them as a starting point, should be super easy to add the bcc option)
Or you can try an even easier solution: https://our.umbraco.org/projects/backoffice-extensions/perplexmail-for-umbraco/
After install of the package, and installation of Umbraco Forms, you can add the extra dll (https://our.umbraco.org/FileDownload?id=15280) to your bin-directory and you can specify cc, bcc's and track your e-mails!

@Tim, thank you for the documentation.
@Jeffrey, that sure is a simpler solution.
@Per, thank you :) You just made me say "duh...". It is the simple things in life.
Thank you all for the assistance :)
