Secure Email
Everyone should get secure email. It's free, it's safe, every email program supports it, and it doesn't mean you're a bad guy if you use it. Let's think about it: Would you want everything you've ever emailed to be revealed? No, of course not! Would you rather send a postcard or a sealed letter (let's forget about the pretty pictures for a second)? I'd rather send a sealed letter, because then you at least have some protection about someone reading it along the way.
Email was never designed to be secure, but now it can be. So everyone, go out to one of these sites, download a free certificate, and start sending secure email:
Unfortunately these won't work if you're using any form of webmail.

Yes, any email client with S/MIME support (which Mozilla has) should work with secure email. You just download the certificate, install it, and then trade a "public" key with anyone else that you want to send secure email to (they also need to download a certificate). Once you have someone's public key, you can send them secure email.
