Mara's email at Denby & Roe at the moment of sending: the To line autocompleted to David Chen the client instead of David Chun the colleague, every client in Cc where Bcc belongs, and a forty-page Report_final attached that may be the wrong client's; a pause-before-you-send checkpoint stands between the message and the Send button — who it's going to, what's attached, whether it should go by email at all, and Bcc for groups — because the Send button is a one-way door; passwords, bank details, ID documents and health information stay off email, and if a mis-send happens you tell someone straight away, with 'send now, it's fine' and 'it's already sent' crossed out.

The Outbox — Being Careful With What You Send by Email

A gentle, non-technical guide to the other half of email safety — not the threats that arrive, but the mistakes that leave. A send can't be unsent, so a moment's care before you send prevents the everyday leaks: check who it's going to, mind what's attached, ask whether it should go by email at all, and use bcc for a group.

What you'll learn

  • See a send as a one-way door and email as a way your own data leaves, not just how threats arrive.
  • Check who it's going to (catching the wrong recipient), take a pause before every send, and mind what's attached.
  • Keep the most sensitive things off email and choose a safer channel, and use bcc so a group send doesn't expose everyone's address.
  • See through 'send now, it's fine' (the rush) and 'it's already sent' (hiding a mistake) — care before, honesty after.
