> So windows email client programs have weak or no encryption? I wouldn't put it that way; the problem, as any cryptographer will tell you, is that any encryption that must be reversible without user intervention (as is the case when an AUTH password is retrieved from application storage, decrypted to plain, then reencoded/hashed for transit in accordance with point-in-time handshaking with each remote host) is vulnerable to compromise if the host itself is owned.
