Greetings,
Someone was proposing sending PDFs containing sensitive info over email.
I was thinking of recommending against it, citing the lack of security
in the POP/IMAP protocols. Is that a legitimate concern?
An alternative would be to email them with a link to the PDF which would
be protected with a login system (That's where the PHP would come in).
Thoughts?
Thanks,
-Aaron
