Send a Private Message in Outlook or Twitter with Bccthis

If you ever wanted to send a private email message to one of the person in an official email list which you are sending to a group of people, then Bccthis is the perfect plugin. Bccthis is an Outlook plug-in that lets you safely send personalized messages to email recipients along with your original e-mail. For example if you are sending an email to your boss and your colleague is in the cc list, then you can sent a private email with the original email such that it can be seen only by your colleague.
