4. The setup process is finished:
Remember to note your passphrase somewhere! Every day, users email us that they’ve forgotten their passphrase and can no longer access their encrypted email. We can’t help them. Unfortunately, their encrypted emails are lost forever. Don’t let this happen to you too. Save your passphrase in a safe place so that you can have it when necessary.
Now you can send and receive encrypted email with FlowCrypt.
