I want the best security
 
How can I send an email to a person and be sure that
no one else can intercept it and read it?
I would like only the person who it is ment for to read it.
I want this to be easy for him to open and read.. not needing him/her to
go through loopholes and installations...

I have seen a "sign" button on OE, is this related?

Please guide me since I have never researched this perticular aspect ....

thanks

If other people than your intended recipient share the same instance of OE,
or whatever e-mail client that is used, then there is nothing you can do. If
the intended recipient is the only one that has access to the e-mail on
his/her machine, than no one else will see it. (Unless Homeland Security or
the FBI has them on their Watch list).

They say that is for who they say it is, but can you believe that? I dont.

I care not about who reads it here or there.. I care only about the
transfer.

Can you answer my original question?

I would expect that Bruce' reference to "Homeland Security", and the
"FBI" is just a U.S. centric reference to security eavesdroppers. I
would also expect that there is far too much information for them to be
interested in anything in your email, unless your content has some
trigger word which catches the attention of a filter, and brings that
particular message bubbling up from the terabytes of data passing
through the filter.

I care not about who reads it here or there.. I care only about the
transfer.

Not really. Google on "PGP", and you will find out how to set up message
encryption. Listen to the clip on your first link, again, and ask
yourself how long before sending encrypted messages _will_ result in a
knock on your door, and a subpoena for the private keys to your
messages.

AFAIK, the "sign" option in MSOE only applies to using certificates for
SSL. You will want a third party application, such as PGP.
