I wouldn't bother waiting. Just use a web site to transfer anything important and give up email for this purpose. A hard problem with email is that there is a boundary inside the address itself. How can anyone know this is steve@example.com? Maybe an outside authority can verify it's really @example.com but if I thought this was Steve and it's actually Tammy then I'm unhappy anyway. For your purpose you probably don't think you care. You don't know whether custserv@example.com or customer@example.com or jenny.smith@example.com is the right email address to be telling you that your complaint is being confidentially processed anyway. But what about steve-the-plumber@gmail.com ? Does it matter if this is really from Steve or the mail actually came from tialaramex@gmail.com ? Because the web doesn't have this authority boundary the Web PKI can actually assure you of a meaningful fact to a worthwhile degree. This is really https://example.com/. Is example.com really your local plumber Steve? Are they legally authorised to repair your gas appliance? Are they crooks? We can't answer those things. But we can tell you this is definitely example.com |
