Email chains are either a useful way to track a conversation or a nightmare of confusion that gets in the way. Chances are if you work for a large company or corporation, it’s the latter. If you’re involved with clubs or groups, it’s the former. Either way, you can forward just one part of an email chain in Gmail and Outlook so you can address specific points without all the confusion. This tutorial will show you how.

Outlook is another incredibly popular email app that is used a lot in business. As corporations are the most guilty of long email chains, it would be remiss of me not to include it here. If you’re using Outlook, you have to set up conversation grouping before you can forward an individual message.

Deleting the rest of the mail is optional but does keep things tidy. It ensures the email you’re forwarding isn’t lost within the chain and stands out enough to be quickly read and understood.
You can do something similar in Outlook for the web:
Open your Outlook inbox.Select the Settings gear icon in the top right.
Select Show Emails as Individual Messages from Message Organization.
