Yup.
Freesite owner publishes a PGP/GPG key. CofE does this, for example.
The person who wants to send the message encrypts their message with
this key, and exports it as ASCII-armored text.
(S)he then inserts that encrypted text in the NIM slot.

Easy!

Alternatively:

Freesite owner install FreeMail, and asks anyone trying to contact him
to use it. http://www.freenet.org.nz/freemail/
