To this day, email is the primary mode of communication with the customer in any business organization.
Sending an email, monitoring the email response, and sending follow-up emails is a herculean task that has to be done with dedication. Some emails are confidential as well as private and needs to be handled delicately and with utmost care.

Keeping in mind the importance of this task, you need to form a group with a few users who can take up the responsibility of sending and monitoring emails.  For these users to be able to send emails, permission needs to be set.
The users who have privilege for mailing the Lead, can use “Email” button and also the email icon found in overview page of an Lead.
