No. Every message is sent with the identity of its original author. If you use a Microsoft email program, that program removes the identity of the author and replaces it with the identity of the server before showing the message to you, but if you know how to dig inside your email program, you can find the original information that your email program is concealing from you.

If you use a non-Microsoft email program, it all just works and you see the identity of the author on each message without having to work at it.
