How can I prevent people making changes to my emails when they are replying to or forwarding the message ?
Thanks in advance.

Also, if you set a message to Private, this will prevent user’s from editing the e-mail on Reply/Forward. If they try to edit your original e-mail, a prompt appears letting them know that you marked the message as Private. To use this feature in a new e-mail which you are sending/replying/forwarding, click on the Options… button and select Private from the Sensitivity drop-down.
Be aware; however, that this feature does not ‘block’ any use of your e-mail, i.e., someone can still copy/paste your information, as well as print it. It only works when replying/forwarding! Hope this helps… trish
