Two edit boxes display for a Question and an Answer. Enter a question and an answer that only you and the recipient(s) will know. Then, click Send + Encrypt.
NOTE: The answer is case sensitive.
The encrypted email looks like the following image for the recipient(s). The encrypted email is included as text between dashed lines. Copy this text before clicking the Here link to access the email.
Answer the question and click Submit to access the a screen allowing you to decrypt the email.
The Mail Decryption screen displays. Paste the email content copied from the received email in the edit box and click Show My Mail.
