If you email someone, or answer someone's email, can they then know the sites you have been visiting?

If you email someone, or answer someone's email, can they then know the sites you have been visiting?
Ha! How can they do that, unless you have got professional hackers for your pals?
Reply:a email can reveal your ip and all they have to do is get authorization from your isp then they can monitor your internet activity
Reply:Only if they are hackers.
Reply:No, unless you cut and paste your browsing history list into the e-mail.


The only thing they can get from your e-mail is what servers the mail traveled through and what program you used to send them.


No one can monitor your network activity without software on your machine (Ok the government might, but if they could they certainly wouldn't need to get permission from your ISP), so hypothetically, a monitoring software could e-mail back your browsing history to its host, in that case then yeah, someone could get your browsing history from an e-mail.
Reply:Only if they're dirty websites!
