The thing is, cleartext email being sent over the Internet is insecure anyway. Your ISP (or their ISP, or the other end's ISP, or ...) doesn't need to be the MX to snoop your mail. The data is already flowing through their network. Don't get me wrong; the problem of confidential information being sent in email is a real one. But the "run your own MX" thing just seems like you're giving yourself a false sense of security. -- Ben Scott <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> | The opinions expressed in this message are those of the author and do | | not represent the views or policy of any other person or organization. | | All information is provided without warranty of any kind. | _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
