X.509 / PKI (Public-Key Infrastructure), PGP (Pretty Good Privacy) and IBE (Identity-Based Encryption) promise privacy and security for email. But comparing these systems has been like comparing apples with speedboats and wingbats. A speedboat is a bad apple, and so on. To help develop a common yardstick, I would like feedback (also by private email) on a list of desirable secure email features as well as a list of attacks or problems, with a corresponding score card for the secure email technologies X.509 / PKI, PGP and IBE.
