Brian,
Write all email as if it will appear on the front page of the New York
Times.
To put it another way, never put anything sensitive or embarrassing in
email.
You may be exchanging mail with a trusted reader inside of your own
organization.
But mail gets forwarded and commented on to others who are third or
fourth parties in your own organization who then send to someone or to a
list outside. There are many innocent ways, in addition to malicious
ways, in which your mail can (and too often does) wind up in a totally
public forum. And there are FOIA requests.
Just on Google? Amazing.

Subject: Re: [Fed-Talk] who do you want on this list?
I would note all these posts are on google. So, the world has access to
(a slightly modified version of) this information even without signing
up. Now that I've discovered that I intend to censoring my input to the
list somewhat. I wish I had provided less contact information in past
posts. The DoD does go out of it's way to keep an employees specific
association off public web sites for good reasons.
