> One new development is that you used to be able to get your invoices mailed via snail mail. Then that disappeared and you got your invoices mailed via email. Then that disappeared and now you have to create an account on some portal so that you can download your invoice. So that's one userid/password combo per business relationship or service that you use privately.
It's annoying being on the other end of this: management deciding, for cost reasons, that snail mail is out and email is in.
Somebody else then worries about the risks of emailing documents that contain private information.
I think a case can be made that some kind of email token login is the simplest solution here: passwords only introduce another attack vector since you can usually reset them by email.
Are there more elegant solutions to this problem?
