Yeps, you are right, you did suggest gnp, I just read the thread and thought WHAT, WHY?!? and responded to the last message, it wasn't meant to be a response to your message but to the thread. :) There are numerous ways to do this but TLS would not be my first choice.

I suggested using GPG to encrypt it. It is a good point, though. TLS is a PITA to setup, and doesn't actually secure the e-mail once it arrives. GPG is much easier to use, and more secure, in that the message can only be seen by the intended recipient (provided your secret key is safe).

It's a bother to set up and you have to do it with every mail server you want to have secure communications with. Great, the communications are secure but how about the actual e-mail? Correct me if I'm wrong but the easiest way in this instance would be to just encrypt the e-mail. Windows does provide CA and you can always get another certificate from a known source. Another way to go is to use pgp or some offshoot of that. I don't know but sometimes we (designers/administrators) get a little over excited using technology we don't really have to use. Well, just my 5 cents. -Patrick -----Original Message----- From: Dickenson, Steven [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 17. hein�kuuta 2003 19:04 To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Sending Secure Mail over the Internet If the sending and receiving mail servers, as well as any in-between support it, TLS is an option. Personally, I'd encrypt the e-mails using GnuPG. www.gnupg.org Steven --- Steven Dickenson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Network Administrator The Key School, Annapolis Maryland -----Original Message----- From: Bridges, Samantha [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, July 17, 2003 9:12 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: Sending Secure Mail over the Internet Exchange 5.5 sp4 Windows 2000 Advanced Server Outlook 2000 and XP clients Hello All. I work for a school district in Michigan. We want to send reports to the State that contain information about our students. The information contained in the email attachments must remain confidential and private. Therefore, I need to provide a secure way of sending reports/attachments via email over the Internet. Any ideas or comments would be greatly appreciated. SSL only provides secure logons????....right??? Thanks for any help.
