The policy of not asking about personal medical information by regular email is sound.

I work as an engineer(not in the US) in a governmental capacity and we would never ask for sensitive material to be sent by mail.

We do however have a secure service in our web page where you can upload such material, with the option to cc in people by mail to alert them that you have sent something. Otherwise it will take a day for our archive to send it the right way.

Edit: We have more secure options, but that requires an invite/link. We ofc can handle proper secret stuff as well, but that involves a seperate intranet and secure terminal and so on.

People conforming to the letter, but not the spirit, of a request. For now, this includes text posts, images, videos and links. Please ensure that the “malicious compliance” aspect is apparent - if you’re making a text post, be sure to explain this part; if it’s an image/video/link, use the “Body” field to elaborate.
