I need to send a sensitive email anonymously to a VP at work. I was given information I should not have but it's important to get it to this person. I don't have much trust in local management to address the situation. I also need to protect myself because I won't be ready to leave this job for a few more months.

Any recommendations? It can be a simple one and done or one that's good for a limited time/number of emails.

TIA!

EDIT: I appreciate the recommendations! I will start checking them shortly. I'm hoping we can fix the situation locally but knowing that you recommended these helps me feel better about going this route if it becomes necessary.

Apart from the email address , make sure to not be identified by anything else. Ideally u write as little text urself , as ur writing style may be familiar to someone who knows you. Maybe also schedule the send operation as the time u send this can easily be correlated with ur time schedule. Make sure to also don’t give any other hints. I.e. u could be exposing things by talking about stuff, only u and a small circle could know. Think about other hints which could identify u.
