Receiving a forwarded message allows recipients to trace the transmission history of the email. Outlook also allows delegates to be assigned with permissions to access others' email accounts. Another approach to drafting an email for another person to send involves typing and saving a draft email and then sending that draft to the person as an attachment. This approach enables users to maintain security of their email accounts and Outlook access while providing a solution to drafting communications for another to send. The recipient should download the draft email to his Outlook folder and finalize the communication before sending it.
