It is best when you start sending encrypted that you start a fresh
email, don't reply to a unencrypted email with a encrypted one.  If a
hacker figures out some of the message based on what was not encrypted,
it can then get the rest, or it makes it easier.  That's my
understanding anyway.

I wouldn't be afraid with this, why? if it's truth anybody that send
an encrypted mail could obtain private key from the receiver since has
the plain text message and the public key.

Assymetric cryptography are resillient because they use math operands
really bigger, not simple multiplications and divisions, instead
exponential ones and modulus from divisions. So it's something like
starting that 3/2=1 with a modulus of 1. You have modulus, you can
have the number 2, but how many numbers divided by 2 has a mod of 1,
you dont have the division result only one of the divisors. So it
could be all impar ones. Which one would be the correct one? (that is
our private key). The numbers usually are prime numbers, really big
primes.

This is a very simplistic (and surely wrong) approach but it's like this.


I'm no expert on this but I was told that mixing encrypted and not
encrypted could make it easier for it to be hacked.  If you are sure it
is not, then go ahead and send mixed ones.  If you right, no problem.
If you wrong, well, you the one that gets hacked. I hope it's not info
you don't want known to others.

Probably in some symmetrical cryptographic algorithms what you says could be truth, here....I really doubt it.
