Hello,
If a colleague forwards me an email and I hit "reply," it's my colleague's address that is taken into account. How can I respond to the original sender without using "copy-paste" for the different addresses?
Thanks for any help

Hello

To my knowledge, this is not possible and it makes sense. From the moment someone "forwards" an email, they become the "sender" and the previous sender is nothing more than "text" information.
The program therefore has no way of knowing who the previous sender was. And if you take it further, imagine that the email was forwarded 3, 5, 10 times, internally (within a company) and externally (between companies and individuals), it would be more than complicated to know who the real author is.

Best regards
