E-Mailing Your Biggest Secret!
Thursday, June 5th, 2008
E-mail often seems like an informal conversation among friends. It is most definitely NOT! Don’t put your biggest secret (or fear) in writing in an e-mail, even to your best friend or favorite relative because:
* Messages sent to large or public distribution lists are often very widely distributed and may end up being archived on a Website where they can be pulled into search engine databases and found later.
* A majority of large employers routinely retain and scan all e-mail in the company’s e-mail system, looking for information and security leaks.
