It is also my suspicion that simple PGP decryption support is fairly straightforward, being mostly the ability to run a command on a block and replace the block with the output of the pipe.
I'd like to chip in here, in my _very_ newbie way, that not everybody is running a unix system with the ability to pipe things between processes in so facile a manner. I access the net through a dial up from a MS-Dos machine running KA9Q software. My PGP is of the stand alone sort. I cannot easily get a new mailer to run on this system. Whatever protocol is decided upon, it would be useful if it were not too host-system specific.
