Comment (by dougvanhorn):

 This has already been closed once in #5790.

 I'm actually +1 for adding CC support, as it seems a bit counter-intuitive
 to support BCC but not CC.  As a user of the API, when I see the fields
 'from', 'to', and 'bcc', I pretty much expect to see CC.  Having to
 subclass (or worse, cut and paste) an object called !EmailMessage to
 support CC just doesn't seem right.

 If I understand the reasoning why it was originally refused, it was
 because !EmailMessage is not intended to be a full featured email API.
 Which seems odd, as attachments and MIME alternatives are supported, which
 are certainly at least as complex to support as CC.

 In regards to CC not adding any functionality not already supported by the
 API, that may be true.  However, CC's are semantically important to
 business users, and they are typically the people who pay us to build
 their systems with Django.

 Since patching is pretty simple, and adds a very common and logical field
 to the object, is there a desire to not pollute the arglist in the
 !EmailMessage constructor?
