He's not asking for much, is he? :) No, there's no way to prevent someone
from forwarding an email message sent to them. That would sort of defeat
the whole purpose of email, and would be impossible to enforce across the
myriad of email client software out there. If he wants to prevent the
sharing of the newsletter, he should just send a link to a webpage that
authenticates the users... but then what's to stop them from handing out
their username and password to their friends, or doing a Save As... and
sending a copy of the HTML?
