How secure is @elitefitness.com e-mail?? PLease read.

[Ashamed]

they only have to use algorithms to crack the password.... they already know your email address in most cases cos many of you display it... they don't need to intercept the message; they just need to get into your account....

This is true for any e-mail account not just Elitefitness or Hush

mr rock just wondering something. I read where you posted that elite owns these accounts right. If elite owns the account and can change passwords can they read the mail too?

liftsiron i remember when that happened I just stood back and watched. I can remember back to when that kid died here at elite as well over dnp. I think the same thing happened then. weird shit

don't use elite branded hush email?

only use cyber rights or hushmail = less conspicuous?

don't choose a simple password

The password feature is meant to give a person back their account if they ever forget heir password.
The old hushmail system(back in 2000) did not have this feature, so if you forgot your password then you where fucked.

I know guys that went from say "[email protected]" to "[email protected]" some to even "[email protected]" this is because once they lost their Password Hushmail had no way of getting it back or supporting them.... in the newer version Hushmail changed that, now they can change your password and give you back your account .... HOWEVER by creating a new password it also changes your key, therefore it is impossible to open the old e-mails with the new key... they also basicaly just "reset" your account wich means it is wiped clean and you get it back yeah, but just empty.

the truth is that NO e-mail account on the net is completly safe... as has been stated before if the FEDs really want you they can plant software on your PC that will "record" your password when you enter it and then send that info to the FEDs...

One caveat for Hushmail /elitefitness mail (or really any system);

IT IS ONLY AS GOOD AS YOUR PASSPHRASE. If your password for elitefitness mail is 'elite,' 'elite1' etc, you're an idiot and you deserve having your mail read.

Good passphrases require planning and thought if you really are after security. That's right, a PASSPHRASE, not PASSWORD.

Read, understand, and USE the information here on creating good passwords:

I am a Hushmail subscriber, but have also subscribed to Cryptoheaven. Cryptoheaven is MUCH faster, and I have not had any mail lost by their systems (unlike Hushmail). Hushmail does seem to have improved a bit lately.

He also kindly explained it to me and answered all my fears.
If you have ever mailed EFSam you will have noticed you could not send encrypted which suggests it may sit on the Elite server and so yes passphrase would be open and able to change (as an admin mail addy NOT private)

actually the question I had asked you was that if elite could change someones password on an email account and then read the emails. Thanks
