Hi.
I just saw something that shocked me. I had sent an encrypted mail to a
friend of mine and tried to read it in the archive. Guess what?
The mail that is stored in my archive group is not encrypted in any
way. I think it would be a little better, security-wise, to encrypt it
with _my_ pubkey (so that only the receipient and the sender can read
it) before storing it in a Gcc: location, would it not?
regards,
--
