Secure Web-based Email

Posted by michael on from the encrypted-email-is-neat,-but-no-one-uses-it dept.

Peter self-promotes: "If you are looking for an open source, secure web-based email client and server software, CryptoMail Email System that allows you to exchange email securely, you should check out this non-profit organization, Cryptomail.org who devotes their energy to promote the freedom of private communications. The CryptoMail Email System, the client and server are providing security at the transport level and end-to-end message security. In addition, CryptoMail.org also provides a limited free email account for people to experience its secure web-based email." Looks like something similar to Hushmail.

    ...try convincing your friends to use encrypted email without them thinking you're some paranoid freak.

    I've got PGP integrated with Eudora and ICQ but no one I send messages to or receive messages from is interested in supporting it. So I continue to post stuff, including some fairly private details, on the equivalent of a post card.

    I'd like to see my regular montly bill/statements emailed to me in PGP encrypted form -- surely it's cheaper (and safer) than printing out pages and pages of stuff every month and stuffing them in an envelope.
