Scaredy mail.

WillSelfDestruct.com. Free, anonymous, single view, self destructing online email service. I’m not sure that I understand the logic behind trusting your private messages to a remote server outside your control, but hey, we’re open minded here at Ferret Towers. Absolutely

Okay, so what do I use this for? A: To be honest with you, we‘re not precisely sure. Here are some ideas: * Sending out passwords? it‘s much better than your password sitting in someone else‘s mailbox for eternity, or * Report fraud to your boss or institution, or * Inform authorities about illegal activities, or * Tell employees to stop using the internet for private use, or simply… * Tell someone you love them (why not?)

This is also not very useful since they say it’s a “secure” email. But not actually a secure server (HTTPS), so while the original message is deleted (once preset time or number of viewings have passed), it doesn’t mean it hasn’t been spied on when typed by the maker or read by the recipent. Odd service, but i would also not be willing to use it for any kind of “secret” information if what was just sent is being transmitted as plain text.
