  2. Click the "Reply" button (or press "R" on your keyboard).
  3. In the "To" field, enter the email address of the person you want to send the email on behalf of.
  4. Type a brief message explaining that you're forwarding the email on behalf of the original sender.
  5. Click the "Send" button to send the email.

Method 3: Using the "Forward" feature
