Hi Roelof,

Functionally, if I choose to use this with each client, does each client receive a separate key? How does the client get the key? Is it sent via regular e-mail? If so, were THAT piece of mail hacked, that would compromise security, wouldn't it? What will the e-mail look like to someone who does not have the key? The point here is to figure out to what degree I can use e-mail with clients and maintain client confidentiality. RO> As for starting OTFE. RO> Create a backup with TB.

Again, these may be elementary questions, but I want to make sure this is done right. When I delete the existing message base, how do I do this? Through Windows Explorer? What files will I be looking for? How does one delete registry setting for TB? Again, it is likely obvious to experts, but for the rest of us mortals... not so easy. Once OTFE is started, will backups also be encrypted? Thanks. -- Avi Avram Sacks, using The Bat!
