And there is much more use of hovercraft than monorails. Given that the use of S/MIME is essentially nonexistent outside of a few government and large corporate orgs where people can be ordered to use it or face disciplinary action (and where the mgt. realises that actually enforcing this would result in either no workforce left or a complete shutdown of email, they fix it by reinventing store-and-forward STARTTLS using S/MIME gateways), where does the data to support this come from? Just wondering... is there really significant use of S/MIME (meaning signed email, not CMS for EDI or something similar) signed messages, outside of the STARTTLS-equivalent? Where? By whom?
