  I just found out that my private mail titles can be viewed from other wordpress blogs. How can I change it so that the titl can’t be seen by others as well?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  You could copy those private posts into new child pages, make the child pages private, and exclude them from the pages widget. This assumes you will send links and passwords to the people you want to have access to those articles because without the links, no one will even be able to find the pages.

  The site linked to your name does not appear to have a pages widget, (or pages beyond just the home page), but just in case you switch themes (your current theme doesn’t have top navigation) (or add pages and a widget) in future, I’d still go to the trouble of making the private articles excluded child pages.
