Purpose: HideIt Email Privacy Program encrypts email messages.

Description: 

HideIt Email Privacy Program is a an email message encrypter/decrypter 
that does not violate the United States Encryption Export Laws.  It's encryption is simple,
yet it is not trivial.  As such, it is intended to provide everyday email users with privacy, but not 
necessarily security.  

Email is normally transmitted via plaintext, which obviously is completely 
insecure.  HideIt encrypts rich-text messages (which includes font, color, and other formatting 
information) into plaintext, so that the text can be included in a normal email body.  A built-in key 
manager makes encrypting/decrypting messages a snap, since you only have to type in the 
password for each messaging partner once.  The keys are stored on a keyring, which the user 
must unlock every time he wants to use one of his keys.  It will also recognize messages that are 
corrupt or tampered with, warning the user that the message isn't exactly the same as when it 
was sent.  

HideIt is ideally suited for those individuals who share email accounts or use a corporate email 
account, although it is easy enough for anyone to use.
