你的電郵被擅自轉傳?Do You Know Where Your Emails Are Going？
轉寄他人電子郵件不可不知的事!
Is it OK to forward other people’s emails?
莫琳和保羅正在進行視訊通話。
莫琳剛發現保羅把她寄給他的一封電子郵件轉寄了出去。
莫琳非常生氣，因為那封郵件的內容是關於她和他們兩人一個共同朋友意見不合的事。
她在郵件中詢問保羅的意見；而且，她對那個人還有一些負面的評論。
保羅：嗨，莫琳，妳好嗎?
莫琳：老實說，我在生你的氣！我真不敢相信你把我的電子郵件轉寄給比爾。他昨晚打電話給我，跟我談我在郵件中所說的話。
保羅：我不懂妳為什麼這麼生氣；比爾是派蒂的好朋友，所以我想問問他的想法。
莫琳：我寄給你的電郵是我們之間的祕密。如果我想和比爾討論這個狀況，我早就寄信問他了！比爾很有可能把我說的話告訴派蒂，或甚至把信轉寄給她。
保羅：他不會這麼做的。
莫琳：希望如此！如果我沒直接問你，你會跟我說你把那封信轉奇給比爾了嗎?
保羅：大概不會，因為我覺得妳應該不會在意。
莫琳：不會在意?要是我說的話被派蒂知道了呢？我是請你提供意見，不是把我的問題公諸於世。
Maureen and Paul are chatting on a video call. 視訊通話
Maureen just found out that Paul forwarded an email that she had sent him. She is upset because the email was about a disagreement she and a mutual friend are having. She asked his opinion about what to do. She also said some negative things about that person in her email.
Paul: Hey, Maureen, how are you?
Maureen: To tell you the truth, I am very upset with you! I can't believe you forwarded my email to Bill. He called me last night to talk about what I had said.
Paul: I don't understand why you're so offended. He's a good friend of Patty's, so I wanted to ask him what he thought.
Maureen: My email to you was confidential. If I'd wanted to discuss the situation with Bill, I would have emailed him! He could easily tell her what I said or even forward the email to her.
Paul: He won't do either one.
Maureen: I certainly hope not! Would you have even told me you forwarded it to Bill if I hadn't confronted you?
Paul: Probably not because I didn't think you'd care.
Maureen: Not care? What if what I said gets back to Patty? I was asking for you to advise me, not share my problem with others.
