I spent the last few months working at PGP on a nifty new solution to an
old problem: how to get email encryption deployed more widely without
requiring user education.
Since ideas for solving this problem have been

a means to use symmetric crypto without exchanging keys:

- Bob encrypts A(M) with key B and sends it to Alice
- Alice decrypts B(A(M)) with key A, leaving B(M), sends it to

You're absolutely right. Quantum cryptography *assumes* that you
have an authentic, untamperable channel between sender and
receiver. The standard quantum key-exchange protocols are only
applicable when there is some other
