Unfortunately I got the idea from Nick Berg's story...

There was information that Berg had lent an accused terrorist his laptop, and helped him set up an email account.

Now many of us didn't understand exactly what was involved, until someone spelled it out for us dummies.

You set up an email account with Hotmail, for instance.  The person you are corresponding with has the password and screen name.  You write an email, and instead of  sending an email to someone, you simply save the message as a draft.

The person who shares this account with you, will then check the email account and read the message you left in the draft folder.  That message is replaced by a reply draft message.  Of course the person who needs to converse in this level of secrecy must not use the home computer.

Pretty slick when certain types of parents choose to hit speaker phone during phone calls, and hack their kids email accounts.  I suggested this to my friend, and thought I would pass it along to you all as well....
