My policy on email is simple: I assume that everyone in the world
can read it, if they truly want to take the time and spend the resources
to do so.  If I don't want a secret to get out, I don't send it via
email.  Doesn't matter who the recipient is, what "security" arrangements
are in place, etc.

Now, that's just me, and does not reflect the policies of my workplace,
etc.
