I do not send every message to multiple recipients, regardless of whether I deem it necessary to encrypt them. But if a message I wish to send must be encrypted, I would send it to as few recipients as possible (who knows what happens to the messages after the recipient has decrypted it. He could send it to the local newspaper for all I know). And I would never send it unencrypted. Perhaps I misunderstood the poster who said he had to send to multiple recipients and wanted to encrypt them, even though some had no encryption software. I assumed (perhaps incorrectly) that he meant he had to send an encrypted message to multiple recipients, and I wondered what the use was of doing that if he wanted to send the message unencrypted to those who had no encryption software. The thread is now too long for me to recover the beginning of the thread to see if I misunderstood or not. - -- .~.
