Not sure why I'd not mentioned this previously. Seeing as some of the things we put in emails can get us into trouble, I thought it a good move to bring up hushmail. For those that don't know, it's a secure emailing system that uses encryption. Very helpful if you want to keep your messages safe.

all email is generally safe, but this uses 128-bit SSL encryption while receiving and sending through the server meaning what you send cannot be read by any one snooping (FBI, NSA, CIA, MI5, MI6 etc).

standard emails are easy for a third party to read if they have an ounce of knowledge in that particular area happycamper, sorry mate but it's true (I've done this a number of times now, look up mime encoding in google :D)..

Hence why using sites like hushmail are good, and if you really want to thwart the authorities then the best is to use anonymous remailers (look up the quicksilver client).

But if the authorities provide a authorized subpoena, then hushmail will show them your account. But hushmail is pretty safe.

Oh, and I have them for the same reason most of you other guys do ;).

that's the best thing about anonymous remailers, no logs, so no trace.. :D

if you want you can bounce off 10 or more relays (still encrypted) so to trace back would be very difficult..

All the warez groups use this have a few accounts there.
