“I have forwarded your email” is already clear and professional. If you want to vary the wording or specify what happened next, you can say “I’ve passed your email along,” “I’ve shared your email with the team,” or “I’ve sent your email on for review.”
Choose the Wording by Email Context
- I’ve passed your email along
- I’ve sent your email to the relevant team
- I’ve shared your email with the team
- I’ve forwarded your message to the relevant team
- I’ve passed this on to the team
- I’ve sent this over to the team
- I’ve shared your message with the appropriate person
- I’ve routed your email to the right team
- I’ve sent your email on for review
- I’ve forwarded your email for their attention
I’ve passed your email along
Friendly and professional when the exact forwarding mechanism is not important.
Example: I’ve passed your email along to our finance team.
I’ve sent your email to the relevant team
Clear when you want to reassure the sender that their message has reached the right people.
Example: I’ve sent your email to the relevant team and asked them to review it.
I’ve shared your email with the team
Useful when several colleagues need to see the original message.
Example: I’ve shared your email with the team so everyone has the same information.
I’ve forwarded your message to the relevant team
A polished version that avoids repeating “email” and states where it went.
Example: I’ve forwarded your message to the relevant team for their attention.
I’ve passed this on to the team
Concise and natural in an ongoing email thread where “this” is unambiguous.
Example: I’ve passed this on to the team and they’ll come back to you directly.
I’ve sent this over to the team
More conversational and suitable for routine internal or customer-service messages.
Example: I’ve sent this over to the support team to investigate.
I’ve shared your message with the appropriate person
Useful when you do not need to name the recipient but want to confirm it reached the right contact.
Example: I’ve shared your message with the appropriate person and asked them to follow up.
I’ve routed your email to the right team
Natural in service, support, or administrative settings where messages are assigned internally.
Example: I’ve routed your email to the right team for a response.
I’ve sent your email on for review
Best when the next step is specifically for someone else to assess the message or attached material.
Example: I’ve sent your email on for review and will update you when I hear back.
I’ve forwarded your email for their attention
Formal and concise when the recipient has been identified elsewhere in the message.
Example: I’ve forwarded your email to HR for their attention.
Say Where It Went When That Helps
If the sender needs reassurance about the next step, naming the destination is more useful than simply saying the email was forwarded. “I’ve forwarded your message to our accounts team” tells them both what you did and who now has it.
Do not say the message has been “shared” more widely than it actually has. If you forwarded it to one person, wording such as “I’ve sent it to Alex for review” is more precise.
