Very few emails that we receive, too, can ever be properly trusted (in fact no emails can really be trusted that someone has faked them, changed the contents, or read the message).

At one time it was fairly easy of intruders to listen to our communications, but, then SSL/TLS came along to fix a problem of the sniffing of network traffic, but it is merely a sticking plaster. Many modern day firewalls, though, break these communications, as they have the required private keys which are able to break the tunnel. But TLS 1.3 will make it a whole lot more difficult, as digital certificates will not be used for the keys.
