Secure Private E-mail

 

Sending an email to someone is hardly different from sending a post card through the mail with a written message on it for anyone to read. While there is no such thing as secure email, there are some precautions that you can take which will protect you from nearly all prying eyes.

In most cases, people aren’t concerned about the fact that their email messages could theoretically be read by others who really want to, and will probably remain out there somewhere in cyberspace, even after it has been read and deleted by the intended recipient.

Others however, for various reasons, do not want their sent messages able to be read by anyone other than the email recipient. There apparently are solutions to this problem, and I thought I would highlight a few of them. This is not an endorsement, but simply some ideas if you are interested.
