cc is a typist notation for carbon copy. We use computers now, and less carbon copies. Therefore the notation should be ec for electronic copy or simply c for copy.

cc: - outdated
ec: - electronic copy (scanned and sent via email, etc)
c: - copy (i.e. Xerox copy)

There should be 2 spaces after cc, ec, or c notation.

Enclosure should come 2 lines after "ec" or "c" notations.

Examples:

Sincerely,



John Doe, Vice President, Sales
Doe & Doe, Inc.

ec: Jane Doe, President, Doe, Inc.

Enclosure (2)
