‘Leak proof’ Outlook

The BBC dives into the latest Outlook version and notices that it comes with a new ‘leak-proof’ feature. The new version will allow users to make e-mails ‘self-destruct’, restrict other users to read mail or prevent the forwarding of e-mails.

Above features are part of Outlook’s Information Rights Management, and will probably benefit the not-so advanced users among us. Not to mention that those new features sound completely obnoxious to me for the reason that they try to make responsible people out of packrats. Note also that the page about security isn’t available for non-Office users.

As a sidenote: I find BBC’s “‘related links’ feature” highly commendable: I wish others (media) did the same to.
