It doesn't do it with POP messages either... most clients don't. If you don't have a secure account password to your computer, or you're worried about someone using a LiveCD to directly access the drive, you should just stick with the gmail website. You could also use full-disk encryption, which is available on several Linux distros, but this will require reinstalling the system. On Mon, 2007-11-05 at 22:20 -0800, Ari El wrote:
