This one's really Q68.

A68
Most governments and very large organizations have some kind of private postal service. Computer technology is sufficiently limited that many cryptographic schemes are still secure for private messages, thought top secret information is encrypted by one-time-pad. The high security of information means that even freelance contractors can be trusted with sensitive messages, making the only concern whether they actually deliver it or not.

A18b
Unimportant messages of the Spinward Trade Alliance and environs are served by the Intergalactic Computer Mail Network (the name is aspirational). Affiliated ships act like packets on the internets of old, downloading data from affiliated stations and uploading on arrival.
