So, I had to send more or less the same email to multiple lawyers. I use Thunderbird on Windows 11 (don't judge me. My hands don't work and I have never found a useable voice to text editor for Linux). My practice is to click 'compose as new message' and edit accordingly.
I am almost 100% sure that with one of the emails, I very carefully deleted a whole paragraph as well as changing the subject and personalising the intro. That paragraph was still there when the recepient replied taking on the case I had referred to him. I am even more sure that I deleted the offending paragraph from my reply copying in the client. It contained somebody else's very sensitive data. It was still there in the sent version.
Could this be a bug or does it have to be my error? If it is a bug, how do I report it? It is serious because it can leak private information.
