There are what appear to me on quick inspection to be serious flaws in the this 
software. For example, it uses RSA without proper padding. The website says 
"E-mail is encrypted using the RSA public-key cryptosystem thus eliminating 
security risks from symmetric ciphers." Any security expert will tell you that 
this raises immediate red flags. (And inspection of the code strongly suggests 
that it's as bad as it sounds.)
