Interesting to consider how many of these could be solved or at least ameliorated via existing technological measures and which ones couldn't. Encryption and signing would take care of the interception and authenticity/tampering issue, but there isn't anything that will ever stop the intended recipient of a message from forwarding it indiscriminately. Overall a good policy and good advice from UW; it's ironic that people who understand how email works tend to trust it less than those who don't. (There's something of a lesson there: if experts in a technology or system are more confident in it than the public, you can probably use it with caution; if experts think the public over-trusts it, run away.)
