Is it permissible to send an e-mail on Friday afternoon, knowing it will be answered or at least read on shabbat by a Jew? I am inclined to think that, since the alternative to someone reading/answering my e-mail on shabbat is other internet browsing at least and deorita melachot at worst, it would be ok (assuming they don't go and do melachot deorita as a consequence of the senders e-mail).
Sources would be well appreciated.
I know there is a similar question, but it is about sending the e-mail while it's already shabbat for the recipient.
