No insult taken!! I was just clarifying the situation. I've been a security/privacy advocate for some time now and I just didn't want anyone to have or perceive any expectations as to the security of the server. As with anything on the Internet all new things should be taken with a grain of salt. Again anyone is welcome to use the server. I just don't make any claims that it's more/less secure than anyone else's server. - -- John Perry -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.21-beta20 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iQIcBAEBAgAGBQJR9RJNAAoJEIn5ENyiI2/Nt8gP/3NC2pyCbe7GqftIBkhVMM3k D2KxIq09mUnWVNPgf4AvLS7VqC6TzVrKxGT/Z1YpYaoHQegiQFTfDeCLkj9ZoyjI 2kkiLLIS+r5RDNLME1zXBLnBOT0r5SJ6YONuDmJceVn7EGwaKSRX6361t2yO0KX+ cytxINsANggJ9eoVC2tHNOyepiN8AshZ8+gWSTwAQkojVqCr9AMlMJ5QIUKeIT25 RlfJfHtSDyV1PeZRuT6kilv/mwt5fXPKjwAHJ4gMTpzhhD220JMG70bbEM1JUqCj 4D20SmamjeKuAfMHWDyZsqnI73xqznXa5P9EBpiB5kEDarVhxE+fd1hpqaYzaKMC 7SHZ/tGXemCeFmrF36+tmGapcu74pp1TshS4jGLJ4i3UyTpiJoBpFcjAKUIIdMCH Ve7M2qZ51z4cyGXEIn+cIOXjQM3EsOkGefkFEY2SVG5R/HWz7hr+QB1/RjypkJW/ OukqVSW4SwHZ2uyIh9qCCT43P8p2RFKm7Vt4rmsKh0iDdIkxPc0RbIFIwnJW2Klo 4IOroQEo5iC1Jy9a8gED2aiT73+eNLwK/56+3zdkTiPq/edkYPvRHCwUJcsyElqE Pg4o396jLsGWsxVcgvHwN6aNGHudA17O+8QrNh3TLa7QlQl8g7qKKuk/GVU9my2F yCgd9EKhu8m4AbVaMP0r =cYs9 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- Too many emails?
