Secret Mail Puzzle - Solution

The Puzzle:

You want to send a secret message to your friend Alex in the mail.

But Sam, who you don't trust, has access to all your mail.

So you put your message in a box with a lock.

But you can't send a key, because Sam could use or copy it!

How can you get your message through securely?

Our Solution:

Send the box with the lock to Alex.

Alex can't open it, but can put another lock on the box.

Alex sends this box with the 2 locks back to you, you unlock your lock and send it back to Alex again.

So there is just Alex's lock on the box and Alex can now open it.
