Exchange 2003 mailbox encryption

Is there a 3rd party add-on to encrypt the contents of an existing
Exchange 2003 mailbox and transparently encrypt any new items, as well
as transparently decrypt with an Outlook add-on, using a pre-selected
password to encrypt? Basically, having exactly the same way an
encrypted PST file works but with an Exchange mailbox.

If I tell you that there isn't actually any such thing as a clearly
definable mailbox in the mail store, would that answer the first part
for you?
You can certainly secure traffic between the client and the
destination with certificates and digital signing. You wouldn't even
need to use a password and indeed, passwords don't really have
anything to do with encryption.

What is it you're trying to achieve?

Outlook has had the capability natively for some time to use digital
signatures to sign and encrpyt email.

You can implement the same for OWA using the s/mime control

Why would you want a third party add-on?
