Pardon my ignorance. What is S/MIME? I've heard of mime and thought
that it was a way of encoding attachments...I thought attachments were
a no-no on this list.

Second question, I don't know much about PGP...I've always looked at
email as postcards (I don't write anything I wouldn't want anybody
else to see in an email) so I've never really looked into it. But from
my basic understanding, a PGP message can only be read by sender and
recipient. If this is the case, then why are we posting our PGP codes
to a group that communicates in mass? Shouldn't these be reserved for
interpersonal communications?
I plead ignorance on this...I'm not making any jabs at all. I honestly
and sincerely am asking to be educated on these matters.
