In-Reply-To: <877g966y3u.fsf@building.gnus.org> (Lars Ingebrigtsen's message of "Fri, 07 Feb 2014 20:13:09 -0800")

I wasn't really following the discussion, but I now suspect the use of
symmetric encryption here might be irrelevant in the first place.  Do
you plan to use untrusted (even authenticated, e.g. Gmail) IMAP servers
for file sharing, right?

If so, those symmetrically encrypted data can be a target of dictionary
attacks.  You will be giving unlimited time to attackers (or server
admins) cracking your encrypted data.  That's why people normally don't
want to upload their secret keys in ~/.ssh or ~/.gnupg (even if they are
password-protected by default).
