I have considered looking at GPG for eMail, but never got around to it.
There are a few times when I prefer to have the content of my eMail not
readable by just anyone - although I do make every reasonable effort to not
expose too much smewhat sensitive info via Clear Text transport.  With your
esteemed prodding I will look at GPG, and see if it makes sense for me.

Thanks you!

 You might want to look at GPG. That allows you to encrypt email and
 attachments, verify the integrity of mail from folks you trust, and
 more. GPG has nice integration into Thunderbird with Enigmail. That
 way, you don't need to trust your email service provider, whomever
 they might be.

I've tried in the past to use E-mail encryption (pgp, etc), but the 
hitch I always run into is that of course, the person on the receiving 
end has to also use some form of encryption software to read the 
messages.  Getting ANY of my family, friends or relatives to take this 
extra step has proven to be impossible for me.  They just want to click 
on AOL LOL whatever, and read their e-mail.  They don't want to be 
bothered even installing something that's transparent, once it's installed.

I feel like the kid with the Captain Marvel decoder ring, that can't 
find any other kid with a ring to play with

If I have to send data,  I zip with encrypt, and place it on a new 
folder on an FTP site. (Yeah, I know - don't get me started about SFTP - 
same problem).  Actually, whenever possible, I start up an ftp client on 
my laptop, give them the IP address, and have them pull the data down.  
This way I can monitor exactly who's connected, and can disconnect after 
they have the data.

RE: [NF] Rackspace Noteworthy product

2008-04-17 Thread Gil Hale
Unless you are encrypting all outbound eMail, and require senders of
incoming eMail to do the same, any and all such communications are subject
to being intercepted and read, letter by letter, as eMail communication over
the Internet is all Clear Text.  I figure it is always best to never send
any correspondence via eMail that could come back to bite me, or could
injure another party.  And whenever I transmit any confidential information
I will only send it as an eMail attachment or ftp transfer after the file
has been encrypted at at least 128bit (ZipGenius at 256bit Blowfish).

Almost ditto for an web sites I send out data on.  If it does not have the
little closed hasp indicating the site is secure, I will not send logons
info or credit card info.

 Malcolm has been singing the praises of FastMail...check the archives.

I am a huge Fastmail fan (love their service and their web interface)
but the Noteworthy service also sounds great. 

Assuming equal reliability, here are 4 things I like about the
Noteworthy service:

1. A control panel so one can manage multiple accounts easily. Fastmail
is still focused on individuals (although they claim to be working on a
multi-account control panel interface as well)

2. Migration services to help you migrate from your existing email
service to their service (move all your saved emails and folders). (Note
that this service does not migrate spam settings, folder filing rules,
etc - its just a bulk transfer of email)

3. A variety of archival options including bcc to an an archival account
and DVD snapshots of a mail account.

4. Secondary data backup via Amazon's S3 storage service.

I would love to hear feedback from anyone using the Noteworthy service.

Malcolm

How about Google Apps for Business? I've set up a couple of small
businesses with the free (10-person) version. It provides the
interfaces so that you can use it as a remote email server (POP and

a public server, that's one thing. But I will recommend against it 
almost every time.

It isn't that I'm paranoid that Google will turn evil (I am, though). It 
is that by storing valuable data offsite like that, especially on such a 
high-profile place, the risk of data theft or hacking where I am not in 
control is too great. Google employs a lot of highly intelligent people. 
Highly intelligent people have a way of pulling of highly intricate 
crimes, and it just takes one bad apple.
