Easy Email Encryption Lite Data on Disk

When an encrypted message is decrypted by Easy Email Encryption Lite the software does not write anything to disk. The decrypted message is only in memory, and this data disappears when the computer is turned off. A decrypted message may, of course, be saved to disk.

It may be advisable to delete the encrypted message as received by your email program (if you know where it is) and (sooner or later) to delete a decrypted message which has been saved to disk. Using Windows Explorer (or the MS-DOS DEL command) merely unlinks the file from the file system; it does not erase the contents of the file. To remove the contents without possibility of recovery a program such as Data Destroyer should be used.

If you can run your email program from a memory stick (and if it saves files only to the memory stick), then all data used or produced by this program can be kept off your hard disk.
