When an entity, other than the intended recipient, intercepts a non-encrypted email message, is it possible to read information in an attachment such as a zip file?

Hi,

In general, yes.

As long as the whole message is intercepted or sniffed or captured - however its done, they may as well have been the recipient...

If the ZIP file itself has a password, then thats a different matter! :-)

Cheers,
Tim.
