Out of curiosity what do people on this list use secure email for? Is it just to assert your identity? Or is it for encrypting content?If the latter, what kind of content are you sending that needs encrypting?Is it just attachments? Who are you sending it to?
The reason I got it is so that I could send sensitive information, like usernames and passwords, to other people that I work with. But now that I have it I can also use it for the other reasons that you mentioned.
How do you get the other person to install PGP/SMIME ?
I threaten to break their arms. Or just ask them nicely. Depends on who I am asking. Usually it is other technically minded people. I don't really see a big reason to get my families into encryption. Although, it could not hurt.
