So if my mail server or any of my imap clients are compromised, my mail isn't.
- morganpyne 16y agoAll of your incoming email has travelled through so many insecure servers on it's way to you that encrypting it on receipt is like closing the barn door after the horse has bolted.
- mike-cardwell 16y agoUntrue. A lot of my core correspondance run their own mail systems and use TLS. Even for those who don't, having my mail encrypted on all of my clients and on my own server is still a big gain for me security-wise. Just because I can't secure the senders system, doesn't mean I shouldn't bother securing my own.
