Yes, this highlights the option without taking up too much real estate, and is something that users of current products will be familiar with. > http://www.mozilla.org/mailnews/specs/security/ Mail composition: Require Encryption is better then Always Encrypt. There is this small issue that the user would have to visit the menu twice to change the sign and encrypt options - but I guess that this would be a rare occurrance as to not warrant a change. Section F: Forwarding and Replying. (This section not yet discussed) - well, I'll start. Definately agree that the settings on a reply should match the most restrictive state. There's nothing more annoying that having a mail tool that doesn't encrypt a reply to an encrypted message. As for forwarding a signed message, the issue is getting the user to understand the implications of the forwarding methods. Normally there is "Forward Inline" or "Forward As Attachment", with the default "Forward" being the latter. In the case of a signed message, could this be changed to "Forward without Signature" / "Forward with Signature". Or perhaps: "Forward message contents" / "Forward signed message".. or something along those lines. - Dave.
