[MlMt] Office 365 / Encrypted Emails

[Henry Seiden]

Greetings Robert,

O-365 (Microsoft) is making moves in US government secure markets (DHS, 
DoD particularly). Perhaps that is the interest and driving direction, 
generally.

Either way, if I receive unsolicited encrypted email without advance 
agreement to do so, I consider it to be junk and have not intention to 
respond.

If an agreement to receive encrypted email is requested, I would have to 
consider whether to agree to accept a decoding method.

SFAIK, there is no current problem in my daily use of email for any 
client (app) or recipient in that regard.

Respectfully,

Henry Seiden
