Here’s the deal…
“The main way FollowUpThen works [is]: CC a message that needs a second push to an address like 5hours, 2days, 1week, or even 10minutes@followupthen.com, and if your recipient doesn’t reply (with FollowUpThen as one of the addressees) before your time period is up, the original message is re-pushed by FollowUpThen.com, with a little email graphical tweak, seen above, and a notice that FollowUpThen is acting on your wishes.” Source: FollowUpThen Automates Email Follow Ups -- Email -- Lifehacker

Ian here, one of the creators of FollowUpThen.
The CC method is best suited for those in a managerial position, looking to keep on top of the tasks they assign to people. Or maybe a wife making sure the husband takes out the trash
We recommend using the BCC or TO method for most use cases, but not forgetting about the CC method when you know someone will need a second nudge.
