The problem I see with doing this, is that it doesn't stop someone absent-mindedly sending out an unencrypted mail to the list server. Which then will travel happily in the clear over the Internet to the list server, (where it gets encrypted and sent back out again but its too late by then).
Then have it do a dictionary search on a text, have it randomly pick 10 'words' as delimited by spaces. Do a dictionary search, if they're there it PROBABLY isn't encrypted.
so I'm coming round to the idea that the only way to do this is via a web-driven interface on a secure server.
So, how does swapping a http for a smtpd effect clear text submissions and re-transmission (helping known text attacks)? ____________________________________________________________________ Before a larger group can see the virtue of an idea, a smaller group must first understand it.
