E-mail is re-sent by user who does not have delegate rights to original sender's mail file

User A sends an email to a group of users using Lotus Notes/Domino®. Some time later the email is re-sent to the same group of users with User A as the "From" and User B as the "Sent By". User B has no access to User A's email file and User A has no access to User B's mail file.

This issue can happen if User B has added the "Send" button to one of his/her toolbars.

This button is usually located on the Universal Toolbar (the one with Save, Open, Print, etc).


If a user clicks the toobar Send button, the email they have selected or opened in their mail file will automatically (without any prompts) re-send the email to everyone on the recipients list. It will also show as "From" the original sender and "Sent By" the person who just re-sent it to everyone. This does not require any access to the original sender's mail file, as Notes is actually sending it from the "Sent By" user's mail file.

This has been fixed in Lotus Notes 8.0.1
