Thinking about email security
With the National Security Agency (NSA) monitoring our phone calls, now might be a good time to think seriously about the security of our email as well. In particular, you might want to think about encrypting your email, and about whether it's safe in the hands of third-party providers like Yahoo!, Google, and Microsoft. [...] If you can persuade Windows-using friends and family to use encryption, Lucas recommends Mozilla Thunderbird as a replacement for Outlook and Outlook Express, saying that Microsoft "doesn't provide clear and open access to APIs you need to write a solid plugin [for encryption] ... not to mention that the people I help with their computers, once I hook them up with Thunderbird, they stop calling me [for support]."
