    So everyone gets to see each other's false positives? Very, very bad idea.

    You really trust your people.

    That person should have gotten the message in the first place, then
    decided if it should be used for training. Even then, all it takes is
    one evil, stupid, or careless user to ruin your training.

    Deliver it to them first. Then they can volunteer a copy and you can
    discard it after training. It's still a bad idea, but may be useful if
    the participants are restricted and trustworthy.
