the important stuff.
There's another side of the coin though. You want to be careful doing
mundane stuff over the same channel you would do dangerous things.

Am I correct to interpret you as the best protection sometimes backfires?
I was advised by a Government agency that I should get separate email.
Hence my question earlier about safe email providers. My marginal
Asperger's told me that, that meant safer email, including encryption.
Perhaps a more secure email provider is my best course?
More food for thought.
I'll be back later, with personal thanks for other responses. My
typing speed is slower than I like to believe.
