Use something like pgp or gpg to encrypt your content before sending- there is a very nice 'encrypt current window' option in pgp for this.
Of course this still doesn't hide the recipient, which may be an issue...

You can't. How do you define access by others? Access by Google? People sniffing your internet connection? Non-encrypted messages will always be readable to somebody. If you want to guarantee that your message stays encrypted, encrypt it before sending it. – slhck – 2011-05-31T11:45:22.843
