I'll argue that most of the PGP crowd isn't interested in making it easy for anyone to use PGP/gnupg. I'm making miniscule progress on camram (http://harvee.billerica.ma.us/camram/dev/) which will provide a barrier against Spam as well make opportunistic encryption possible. It's clearly weak but it is good enough for most people (i.e. envelope grade protection) while not changing how people use their e-mail tools. feel free to lift some of these ideas for mutt although, I hope you'll talk to me first so I can document what is done for interoperability reasons. --- eric
