But if you use e-mails to talk to your mom or your neighbor, then that damages your social skills.

E-mail privacy, without some security precautions, can be compromised because

* e-mail messages are generally not encrypted;
* e-mail messages have to go through intermediate computers before reaching their destination, meaning it is relatively easy for others to intercept and read messages;
* many Internet Service Providers (ISP) store copies of your e-mail messages on their mail servers before they are delivered. The backups of these can remain up to several months on their server, even if you delete them in your mailbox;
* the Received: headers and other information in the e-mail can often identify the sender, preventing anonymous communication.
