Heh Chris' conspiracy theory is hard to refute. After THIS LONG, email *should* be secure. It's even WORSE than postcards, because postcards don't automatically replicate the entire contents of the conversation on each subsequent reply. I remember being absolutely astounded when I received a GPG-signed email in Outlook 2013, and it had a little badge on the far-right. I've never seen it again, even with other GPG-signed emails. *shrug* Anyway - https://Keybase.io -- I have a small number of invitations for this! If you want one, let me know and you'll go into the ballot ;-) Eric -------------------------------------------- Q: Why is this email five sentences or less?

True. Perhaps the right approach is to build the ability into the e-mail app to mark an entire thread as confidential, so replies to it are automatically encrypted.
What you've described would be excellent.
It just surprises me that tool like Outlook do not already do this. And the third party tools that try (I've tried using them) are still a bit clunky and not up with the latest versions.
It almost seems like the agenda is 'don't implement PGP in Outlook, we don't want to upset our friends who gather a lot of business intelligence by keeping email unencrypted'
