Problem: we want to ensure that a third party can't read our emails. Solution: give those emails to a third party to put on the web. The user-unfriendly forms of encryption are unfriendly because they work. If it doesn't have to work, I can make it real friendly =) A password-protected zip file works just as well as using a third party. You still have the (unsolvable) problem of getting the password to the recipient in a secure way, but at least you haven't given away the thing that you're trying to keep secret. (How would you get the webpage password to the recipient? Do that.) _______________________________________________ mailop mailing list mailop@mailop.org https://chilli.nosignal.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mailop
