re: Interface for re-mailer; why not hitch it to emacs or something? re: problem with key distribution; right, OK, I hadn't thought that there might be a security problem with casually giving someone your key without them being able to authenticate that it came from you. Good point. Here's my public key. If you feel it is not secure enough, we can always use the cone of silence: -----BEGIN PGP PUBLIC KEY BLOCK----- Version: 2.0 23l1t34u -----END PGP PUBLIC KEY BLOCK-----

Good >point. I look at it this way, by emailing my puplic key anyone can send me a secure message (I can't trust where/who it came from but we [the sender and I] can assume that noone is eavesdroping (it could have been replaced but not altered or read) For secure authenticated, where you *know* if came from me you have to contact me or someone you trust that has contacted me. -Pete
