Yes, messages are clearly bouncing to *@gnucash.org (see below for one
I received). Surprisingly, messages to @lists.gnumatic.com are not
bouncing. I suspect that the former (gnucash.org) was recently
upgraded and the proper mail aliases don't exist anymore.

For the personal user of Gnucash I don't really think that this is a
reasonable threat against their home Linux box. Honestly, I'm not
worried about my wife or roommates trying to break into my machine.
I agree that it's more likely a threat against someone's Linux box at
work. But I don't expect Gnucash to be used in that context. Hense,
I stand by my statement that Gnucash itself need not do the encryption
for standalone files. The user can run CFS if they want to protect
their data.

Yep.
