Your opinion does not invalidate facts. It is quite true.

So you're the only person on the planet that isn't vulnerable to the eves dropping? That's seems odd. So you contend that those people were just naive and didn't understand how to prevent officials from viewing their emails?

Email is my primary method of communication for co-workers and clients - it's better than even phone conversations, because I have an easy log of everything that was said, and I can go back to emails from months ago to get details on a task. Skype is a great supplementary tool, but it still doesn't beat email.

I agree.

I can pull up email conversations from years ago very easily, can archive them to my hard drive, and I NEED to maintain those records.

Odd or not, it doesn't matter to me. Email WORKS for me, since I CAN take steps to secure it if I feel the need and I can care less what other people do or believe.
