Yes and this is what I said: It's useful to get the ISP involved. But it's not necessary -- Google doesn't provide instructions on how to enable send receipts in Outlook. I would guess that there are users out there using gmail that use read receipts. So yes, definitely get the ISPs involved. But let's not rely on them. A good, easy-to-use (easy-to-install) plugin for Outlook '03/'07/'10 should go a long way to getting people to use end-point encryption. The main value I would see in the STEED proposal is to make this whole process easier for the user. The UI for keyring management and crypto operations will be the most important part to making that work, and the ISPs don't have to help out there (modulo webmail which isn't even end-point). -- PGP: A0E4 B2D4 94E6 20EE 85BA E45B 63E4 2BD8 C58C 753A PGP: 2C23 EBFF DF1A 840D 2351 F5F5 F25B A03F 2152 36DA _______________________________________________ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users
