Heh, no, no.  I don't think so.  It's amazing how many places along the line
where your email or BBS message gets stored... both of those are anything but
private.  If I'm truly worried about an email, I'll use PGP.  BBS messages are,
well, just that-BBS messages.  Netmail's not private either. :)

I even have a warning about private messages not being truly private on my BBS
which is part of the login screen that you see everytime you log on.
