CalMail and secure info

Hello

I was surprised to see this suggestion on the HR website:
    * When hiring an employee who claims to have already cleared a
campus criminal background check, how can departments accurately
verify a previous fingerprint session?
    * To find out if an individual has already had a criminal
background check, departments can send the UC Police Department the
full name, date of birth, and social security number of the
individual in question to: camillen@uclink.berkeley.edu or
terric@uclin4.berkeley.edu
I've always followed the proscription against emailing such info. Is
Calmail's use of secured connections sufficient to make this not an issue?

Thanks, Michael
