AFAIK those "Key Escrow" sneakness systems are only in the comercial version and are optional. (kind o fmakes sense to have a "Company Key" for buisness related stuff so that if you die tomorow, the company can still recover its data) > We're actually moving to gpg soon, so this will all be moot. :) How soon? last I heard it wasn't quite ready yet. I would personally lovce to start using gpg at least as a test now... as long as it wont interfere with my current pgp use too... any pointers? does mutt support it? I take it it doesn''t use idea/rsa lik ePGP does by default? -Steve -- /* -- Stephen Carpenter <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> --- <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>------------ */ E-mail "Bumper Stickers": "A FREE America or a Drug-Free America: You can't have both!"
