We’ve recently added a new feature that you can use to send encrypted emails to recipients who are not using Hushmail.

The new feature works by asking you for a secret question and answer before sending your message. The message is encrypted using the answer to your question, and it can only be decrypted by someone who knows the answer.

To give it a try simply sign in to your Hushmail account and compose a new message. If you don’t have a Hushmail account, you can create one for free.
