In the age of computers and cell phones there is too much floating around to hide. Most people don't understand the intricacies of electronic communication. The key component is that when email is sent it starts out with 2 copies. The sender and the recipient. And if there is a conversation they likely will use the reply method keeping a more detailed trail. Even if it were to involve phone conversations without text the connections can be made when time stamps can be matched between the caller and person called.

All of the tracks can't be covered or deleted.
