- I prefer "CC'ing", personally, and b.g.c. suggests that most writers prefer "cc-ing"; and, there's interference from an automotive use of "cc" that seems to mean "to determine the volume of" (presumably after cc = "cubic centimeter"), but there are at least 5–10 cites for "cc'ing" in the e-mail/memo sense. Here are three (using curly quotes at DAVilla's request):
- 2000, Harvey A. Robbins and Michael Finley, The New Why Teams Don't Work: What Goes Wrong and how to Make it Right, Berrett-Koehler Publishers, →ISBN, page 138,
- The animosity was so complete that they stopped cc’ing routine items to one another, and even scheduled illegal meetings on the sly, without the other one present.
- 2004, Kate White, ’Til Death Do Us Part, Warner Books, →ISBN, page 64,
- “She kept sending all of you those awful e-mails and cc'ing me. […]”
- 2007, Angel J. Salazar and Steve Sawyer, Handbook of Information Technology in Organizations and Electronic Markets, World Scientific, →ISBN, page 58,
- Redundant ICT-enabled communication such as follow-up emails and cc’ing multiple people is not as necessary in the FTF environment where a passing glance on the way to the water cooler suggests someone is hard at work on her desk.
- 2000, Harvey A. Robbins and Michael Finley, The New Why Teams Don't Work: What Goes Wrong and how to Make it Right, Berrett-Koehler Publishers, →ISBN, page 138,
- Don't ask me to explain what the third one is talking about, though. :-)
