Well, that's another type of error (human error). And TLS will not address that type of error either.
I was referring to the case where the email is redirecting to (or through) an unintended recipient.
Before my comment is further misinterpreted, let me make clear:
I am not saying "Do not use SSL/TLS." By all means use it; regardless of the bugs, the complexity and the lack of an acceptable authentication mechanism.
But encrypting before transport is even more important, IMO. And so that is a more interesting statistic.
The two are not mutually exclusive.
Not to mention one could use SSH for encryption "in transit". It has better authentication than SSL/TLS, but that's only my opinion.
