*"If you're using a commercial email service that's being carried through the telecommunications network, it will be covered by all of the same rules that apply to a Government-based service."*
Public email systems have no requirement to be encrypted. Nor any requirements for strong passwords, or any form of 2 factor auth. Nor any auditing requirements. Are you suggesting that the official government servers have none of those things as requirements either? Please, please tell me you were mis-quoted, because that statement holds absolutely no water...
