It seems that if the encrypted email was intercepted wouldn't you assume that
the subsequent password email might also be intercepted?

Regarding 7-Zip; is it necessary to use a zipping program in order to
password-protect a file or files? Is there no way from within TB! to encrypt an
email without zipping it first?

Thanks for your patience with this.
