I'm sometimes pondering a different approach. I'm quite pessimistic about being able to educate the general population about OpenPGP. Therefore, I'm wondering whether it wouldn't be better if we, the developers of Free Software mail clients, made the usage of OpenPGP (or S/MIME) for email as transparent to the users as possible. Ideally, the users wouldn't even have to notice that they are communicating via encrypted email. Unfortunately, I think email is a lost cause because there are so many different mail clients that will never support encryption. I think we have a much better chance to replace email with something new that has end-to-end encryption (and probably also authentication) built in than we have to fix email. Regards, Ingo
