E NCRYPTING M ESSAGES  D ISCUSSION

Use message encryption to secure email messages. When a message is encrypted, only the recipient can read the message. To encrypt a message, both you and the message recipient must have digital certificates. Use the Security Properties dialog box in the Message window to encrypt the new message.

NOTE It is unnecessary to exchange digital certificates if you are exchanging messages through a Microsoft Exchange Server to which the administrator has set up security files. Encrypted messages do not appear in the Reading Pane. You must open the encrypted message to read it.
