Reminds me of the Petraeus scandal where they communicated via unsent Gmail drafts in a shared account.
EDIT:
From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Petraeus_scandal
Petraeus and Broadwell used fake names to create free webmail accounts
exchanging messages without encryption tools.
They would share an email account, with one saving a message in the
drafts folder and the other deleting it after reading it.
