When I receive encrypted email it's unreadable in Gmail or on my BlackBerry which can be a pain if I'm on the road and someone is sending me server account information that I need. Frequently I tell them to send the account and address info by unencrypted email and send me the password by itself as a SMS message. Not ideal but at least I can read it anywhere.
