I would have to seriously disagree with you here Steve. My computer
was seized in May for something I didn't do. That's why I wasn't
around for some major list problems which necessitated the move to a
new server. Thanks again to Marck and Syafril for picking up the ball
and running with it in my absence.
Even though none of my PGP encrypted messages had anything damaging or
even important in them, I am glad that TB didn't automatically decrypt
and/or store the decrypted versions.
Just because you use PGP doesn't mean you're doing anything illegal,
but private messages are just that... Private!
If you just really have to have a decrypted softcopy, cut and paste
works wonders.
